Biodiversity Research Institute (BRI) announces the successful results of its long-term loon translocation and restoration project Restore the Call: A male loon chick that was translocated in 2015 from the Adirondack Park Region of New York to the Assawompsett Pond Complex (APC) in southeastern Massachusetts returned in 2018 to the region from which it fledged, and now in 2020 has formed a territorial pair, nested, and successfully hatched a chick in Fall River, Massachusetts. The identification of this loon (through color bands) marks the first confirmed nesting pair in southern Massachusetts in more than a century.

Biodiversity Research Institute (BRI) announces the publication of Loon Landscapes. Authors David Evers and Kate Taylor chronicle the stories of the world’s five loon species.
