In this season one segment from “Weekends with Yankee” (episode 107), Richard is in Holderness, New Hampshire, in search of the elusive loon, an aquatic bird known for its unique haunting call and signature red eyes. The hunt takes place on Squam Lake (the location site of the award-winning film “On Golden Pond”) alongside Harry Vogel of the Loon Preservation Committee, who gives us the lowdown on New Hampshire loons, including their lifespan, mating habits, and paternal instincts. Be sure to bring your life vest as we venture out onto the lake to witness these impressive protected birds in their natural habitat.
