Adopting
Your Loon
BRI and its sister organizations have been working for years capturing,
banding, and observing Loons. We have information on thousands
of individual birds. We will use this database to give you detailed
information about the particular Loon you adopt. Each Adopt-A-Loon
packet will include:
A description of your Loon's personal history
(how old it is, its size and weight, what lake it resides on,
and how many offspring the Loon has parented);
An Adopt-A-Loon Certificate;
A fact sheet on Common Loons and how mercury
and lead affect loons;
A 2008 Loon Appreciation poster; and
An 8" x 10" color
loon photo.
$39.50 for standard adoption
$30.00 for school classes/students
$55.00 for Loons from custom lakes (please
call to see if we work on the particular lake you want)
The Adopt-A-Loon Program is sponsored in part
by a generous grant from L.L.BeanŽ.
