Please support the full proposal as written. It includes documentation that "our" loons migrate in large numbers to the Gulf each winter.
It also includes strong citizen participation / lake associations in assisting with enhancement of loon breeding / nesting habitats. And it contains efforts to get lead sinkers out of circulation with lead poisoning as key element in loon mortality.
