Give loons a wide berth

The ice is going out on many Lake Vermilion bays, so the loons will be arriving soon!

Don’t be the one who causes a pair of loons to abandon their nest.

Loons are curious creatures who will check out your boat while you’re fishing on Lake Vermilion. But they do not tolerate curious people checking out their nest during incubation. Please give them a wide berth while they’re nesting.

Don’t be the one who causes a nesting failure.

More information about Minnesota’s loons can be found here on the Minnesota DNR website.
