While we were still waiting, hoping for a loon chick last year, a friend sent me these photos, taken by Kittie Wilson on a                                        nearby lake.  So happy to share these wonderful shots.
Just two days later we were thrilled to find our pair of loons on the lake, sheltering their own tiny one.  Scroll down for photos of our own loon chick, taken by neighbor Diane Keenan  (thanks, Diane!)   Scroll down to see Diane's photo.

And here's our own nearly newly-hatched chick   Adorable!
