Thank you Loon Preservation Committee for coming out on Saturday and again today to rescue the stranded loon out on Paugus Bay. They were able to capture the loon and run some blood tests. Unfortunately, the loon has lead poisoning and is now being treated over in Freedom, Maine at the Avian Haven Wild Bird Rehabilitation Center. A number of rescues have been performed this winter and some of their success stories can be found on their Facebook page.
