SINCE 1983, dedicated Maine Audubon volunteers have descended on their local lakes and ponds with a pair of binoculars and a shared passion — protecting the Maine loon and its habitat. This year, the 30th annual loon count takes place at 7 a.m. on Saturday, July 20, with more than 900 loon counters expected to help gather data for Maine Audubon and the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife about the status of loons in the state. Volunteers interested in participating in this year’s loon count can contact Susan Gallo at sgallo@maineaudubon.org or call 781-6180 extension 216.
