We've been seeing Common Loons fly over Washington DC on migration. That's some good #BirdTherapy! The world’s oldest loons returned to Seney National Wildlife Refuge in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula this week. The loon called ABJ will turn 33 in June and Fe will be at least 34 this season! And isn’t it so sweet that the oldest known loons in the world are a long-term pair?! 🥰 More about Common Loons: https://abcbirds.org/bird/common-loon/ Video by Justin Hoffman | American Bird Conservancy

#Common Loon Calls
Turn your sound on for this special call! The wails and yodels of a Common Loon are often a characteristic sound of early summer. Occasionally, loons are found stranded on wet roads or parking lots after mistaking them for waterways. Loons require anywhere from 30 yards to a 1/4 mile of water to be able to take off flying. Fortunately, this loon had no injuries and was able to be released shortly after being admitted. Fun Fact: Common Loons can hold their breath underwater for up to 8 minutes! |

Referred to as the “spirit of northern waters,” the common loon is recognized as a symbol of unspoiled wilderness. Unlike most birds that have hollow bones so they can fly more easily, Common Loons have solid bones which help them dive underwater to depths up to 150 feet so they can look for food. The call known as the wail, can be easily heard over long distances, sounding similar to a wolf’s howl. 📽️: Stephanie B #WildlifeWednesday | NYS Department of Environmental Conservation

It is weird and wacky waterfowl migration season! Yesterday we returned a stranded red breasted merganser to open water and today a common loon. Mergansers, loons, grebes, cormorants and certain other species of waterfowl are not equipped to manage on dry land. They can neither walk nor take flight without a very long water run way. They do unfortunately sometimes mistake wet pavement or other glittering surfaces for water and land which result in them being stranded. We give each of these stran

This Common Loon was in and out of our hospital in less than 24 hours! Many migratory birds migrate at night, and some diving birds, like loons and grebes, can get into trouble when they mistake wet pavement for the reflective surface of water, like a lake or pond. Even if uninjured, these birds cannot take off from the road and will die there without assistance. Their back legs are set far back on their bodies for diving and they do not allow for walking on land, so they need a relatively large
