Observation details
Interesting interactions; rival intrusion? The usual pair of loons had a third party this afternoon. All three are breeding adults. Much vocalization and then the three were swimming in a tight circle, with two of the birds intermittently rising out of the water and displaying wings. This led to some violence, with much thrashing in the water, including what appeared to be one bird holding the other under the water. Eventually two left, after there was intense vocalization, and the third went off in the other direction across the lake. Later the pair was seen swimming and vocalizing together.
