LPC Loon Cam 2 ~ We Have A Hatch! 🐣 Cute Loon Chick Active & Strong! 7.15.24

- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- Dad loon had been incubating the eggs and then he takes a break and slides into the water. We have excellent closeups of the first egg hatching and the chick working hard at breaking free. It's head was out of the eggshell when Mom loon came back and she sat on the eggs. The chick hatched underneath her and we got our first glimpse when it was peeking out from under her wing! Welcome to the world little loon chick! 🐣
Enjoy some adorable coverage of the chick as it peeps and moves around the nest and back under Mom's wing. We do not see a pip yet in egg#2 - hopefully that will happen soon.
The loons normally wait until the second chick hatches and have a bit of a recovery before they leave the nest and take off swimming to their summer brooding area. Although we do can't see them on the cam after they depart, LPC does keep an eye on them and will make sure the family is safe & give updates on chat. The first hatch will jump in the water fairly soon and will swim around & hop up on a parent's back as we wait for the second egg to hatch. Thank you for watching!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The loons are identified by coded leg bands.
Female: Left leg: white stripe (white background with a horizontal black stripe through the middle) over blue
Right leg: Silver over yellow stripe (yellow background with a horizontal black stripe through the middle)
Male:
Left leg: Blue stripe (blue background with a horizontal white stripe through the middle) over orange dot (orange background with a black dot in the middle)
Right leg: Blue dot (blue background with a white dot in the middle) over silver
The female at the Cam 2 nest was banded in 2017. She's been on territory in recent years, with the exception of 2023. That year, she was seen in this territory and in neighboring ones, but no pair ever settled down to nest.

A Cute Addition to this Loon Family. Like all non raptor Aquatic Chicks, these little guys come out of their Egg shells with their Pro Ked track shoes on. Alert, looking at Mom for cues, they are ready to Conquer the World. Nest life fan here. Happy to see Mom and Dad sharing parent functions equally. Thanks for Posting L.H.
what stunningly beautiful birds.
These birds have a stunning feather pattern.
They have such pretty markings, thanks LH 💜
Awww what a cute loon chick! 🥰😍🥰 And the parents are so beautiful ! 😍 thank you for sharing Lady Hawk! 😊
The next 24-48 hours are the best viewing of nature as the little loons take to the water and swim and ride with the parents! Thanks Lady Hawk.

Is there anything cuter than a new hatchling? It’s probably debatable but gosh darn it, this little one is just adorable!🥰
Did they loose 2 eggs previously due to dad's breaking the eggs?
