On Saturday, July 18, the Michigan Loon Preservation Association will conduct its First Michigan Loon Count.

This effort will create an important statewide snapshot of Michigan’s loon population. The information you collect will help us better understand population trends, identify conservation priorities, and strengthen our efforts to protect loons and the lakes they call home.

Participating is simple:

• Register at link below. On the day of the event you will get a text or email with a link to file your report.

Register Michigan Loon Count

• On July 18, count and record the number of loons observed on your lake.
• Submit your observations through our reporting system.

Every loon lake matters. Thank you for your help! 

Whether your lake has one loon pair, several families, or no loons at all, your observations provide valuable information.

Conservation decisions are only as good as the data behind them, and citizen scientists like you make that work possible.
