Baby loon learns to takeoff from their parent! Undeveloped lakes and ponds offer the best habitat for wild loon parents to successfully raise their young. Loons have made a comeback in the Northeast but still face threats from left-behind fishing gear (lead sinkers and fishing line), motorized boats, and disturbance from people. Keeping a distance of more than 100 ft allows loons to raise their young successfully...and have some epic playtime like this! . . . #loons #loon #birdsofinstagram #bird
