Interesting reading about Loons
Common Loons are Faithful to Wintering Sites
Researchers have long known that loons throughout Canada and the northern United States stay faithful to their spring nesting sites, however, new research shows for the first time that the birds are also faithful to their wintering sites.

Woodie Cam has a Hooded Merganser nesting early...
-Punky is her name :) -She has a wild top knot on her head...
She has covered the eggs with wood chips to prevent freezing.
Hooded Merganser 5th egg today...

Mom is taking a break.

I kept hearing a voice and realized that someone is removing eggs and checking for pips. I wasn't quick enough with the click to get a shot at the man. I am so glad he does not mean harm to the eggs. Several have pipped so it shouldn't be long now.

Gigi-That is Woodie who runs the camsite...
:15heartbeat:

That is what I figured out. I had the volume down pretty low and I was watching several cams so I couldn't immediately figure out where the voice was coming from.

Most are pipped. Wish I could have gotten a shot of Woodie!

Woodie Cam has several hatches. :hatchegg:

LaVelle is keeping them well covered, but every now and then, one pops out from under her.

Oh My! A whole pile of duckies! I can definitely see 2 eggs not hatched.. but can't begin to count the little heads! :loveshow:

I think LaVelle's ducklings have taken over. :teehee:

Running wild a few minutes ago, but she now has them under her for the most part.

I thought she was ready, but she is back in the box covering the ducklings.
