Here in Canada, the Common Loon is a singular bird that has migrated from our distant remote northern areas into the very heart of Canadiana. It magically straddles a line that intersects with the romanticism of solitude and the comforts of companionship. It is both distant and intimate, remote and personal, lonely and reassuring. It has become a symbol for all this is good and pure and those feelings are reinforced whenever it is seen or heard in our province.
