This internship involves assisting with planning and delivering outreach programs, leading excursions aboard the StewardShip, engaging visitors to The Nest, creating educational content, working on community science efforts, and more.
Are you an undergraduate student passionate about the common loon and freshwater conservation? Join the National Loon Center team this summer as a Community Outreach Intern! Find the full position description and how to apply our website: nationallooncenter.org/events/
It's Take A Kid Ice Fishing Weekend this Saturday through Monday! Fishing lead-free is important year-round. We have lead-free ice fishing sample packs at The Nest from Get the Lead Out MN. Check out their directory to find more tackle: pca.state.mn.us/air-water-land…
National Loon Center retweeted
Getting ready for ice fishing season? Consider checking your tacklebox for lead tackle and participating in our Lead Tackle Buyback Program! This month is a double voucher month—when you turn in 1 ounce or more of lead tackle.
Sporting activities shouldn't come at the cost of the environment in which they are enjoyed. We can fish (and hunt) responsibly to preserve both our outdoor recreation and wildlife for years to come.
4. Make the switch to lead-free fishing. We can prevent loon deaths via lead poisoning by choosing lead-free tackle alternatives. Find options here: pca.state.mn.us/air-water-land…
Fatal fishing line entanglements are preventable. Through loon-friendly fishing, we can keep another loon from facing this incredibly sad fate. cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
Don't forget, this Thursday is Minnesota's annual Giving Holiday! givemn.org/organization/N…
Save the date for another round of trivia!

Today begins the Early Giving season and the time to Give a Hoot about loons! Give to the Max is Minnesota's annual Giving Holiday. Now through November 17, give a gift to the National Loon Center to support common loon research and education efforts. givemn.org/organization/N…
The loon made the spooky season playlist! worldwildlife.org/stories/it-s-s…
FYI: It's looking like we'll only be open from 10-1pm tomorrow. Stop by The Nest for in-store student discount.
And finally, loons that breed in the western parts of the United States and Canada migrate to the Pacific Coast.
Satellite telemetry studies by @Adkloon found that loons that breed in the Adirondacks migrated to the Atlantic Coast as far south as North Carolina and Florida.
Where are loons going for the winter? Check out the range map of the common loon below. Loons across North America are wintering along the coasts.
