Loons: A Call of Beauty, A Call of Action

June 21 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm

- Free

Henry David Thoreau described a loon’s call as, “Perhaps the wildest sound that is ever heard here, making the woods ring far and wide.” Join us for a presentation about loons inspired by Thoreau’s admiration for them at the Walden Pond Visitor Center Gallery on Sunday June 21st, from 11 am to 12:30 pm.

DCR Wildlife Biologist Jillian Whitney and Loon Preservation Committee Outreach Coordinator/Biologist Caroline Hughes will discuss Common Loons, their distribution and presence in Massachusetts—including at Walden—and how we can protect them.

This program is free; no registration required. Regular parking fees apply. Parking is first come, first served.
