$25.00 – $255.00
Description
After leaving the nest, common loon chicks ride on the adult’s back for a few days, a place safe from underwater predators. This also helps chicks to regulate their body temperature. Both adult loons feed the small chicks. Baby loons eat small fish, insects, and invertebrates and then algae and other vegetation until they learn to dive. By one account, loons feed their chicks over seventy times a day.
