The Lobster Lake Association (LLA)
supports the placement of floating loon nesting platforms
at various locations around the lake. This
started with one nest in 2001 and and has grown to eleven
in 2026.
This effort has produced between two
and eleven loon chicks per year. Volunteer “caretakers” place
new nesting vegetation on the frame each spring and deploy
them shortly after ice out. The caretakers monitor the success/failure
of each nest until removal and storage at the end of June.
The Association keeps an annual record of the information.
Please stay at least 50 feet away
from the nests that are being used by loons.
