Dear BirdNews members.
Do you spend time on the same lake at least once in June, July and August? If yes please join us and help collect breeding data on the Common Loons that use Canadian Lakes. Although July is almost over you can still join and submit data for this year. Learn more about the program, review the participant factsheet, and register to participate at www.birdscanada.org/loonshttps://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.birdscanada.org%2Floons&data=02%7C01%7CMike.Burrell%40ontario.ca%7C625e2f88e52d4b6e9a5008d82f27123c%7Ccddc1229ac2a4b97b78a0e5cacb5865c%7C0%7C0%7C637311192148551978&sdata=P%2BQ0D3vC6Vb6OtSTGdvhEI%2F5cIYuoLH9o0IHXUo9UjM%3D&reserved=0.
