Summary
The Michigan Loon Registry planned to survey lake levels at known loon-nesting lakes in 1988, connecting water-level fluctuations with nesting success. The August Beacon reported two chicks with one set of parents at Font Lake.
Evidence limits
This is a brief conservation notice and observation; it does not supply the survey results, a water-level series, or a complete nesting census.
