Blogger Chris Petrak’s Tales of Birding blog includes loon photos and an interesting post about the Common Loon.
Petrak says “Eerie. Haunting. Mysterious. Other worldly. Carrying across the still water in the mistiness of early morning or the dimming light of evening, the song of the loon is the song of the wild and untamed.”
“…Now add to this the eerie call of the loon. Many call it a yodeling, suggesting a sound or song similar to a particular sound or song we might hear elsewhere. I don’t think so. The call of the loon is a call all its own, one that could easily suggest unseen spirits.” View the article.
