rj_scottDescription
A day of Juvenile Loon school, Bald Eagle flyover threats, managing visiting Loons and navigating boat traffic makes for a very busy and tiring day.
Both Juvies took turns begging this parent for food and then resting. When the 2nd parent joined they all floated off to go fishing for dinner.
