MOULTONBOROUGH — The Loon Preservation Committee will conduct its annual loon census on July 20 from 8-9 a.m. During that hour, staff and volunteers will survey lakes across the state for loons. Following the census, the Loon Preservation Committee will host its 45th annual Loon Festival, a family-friendly event offered free of charge to members of the public, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at The Loon Center in Moultonborough.

“The Loon Census is a valuable part of our annual data collection,” said Loon Preservation Committee biologist, Caroline Hughes. “It helps us to get a count of the number of paired, as well as unpaired, adult loons and loon chicks that are present in our state.”
