Where the Loons Call
By Virginia M. Wright
Just after sundown on a warm evening in mid-July, a small convoy of cars slides from the stream of traffic on Route 302 in Windham and threads through a quiet residential neighborhood to the western shore of Little Sebago Lake. The dirt road is damp from the day's hard rain, and even though the sky is clearing, the yards and porches of the lakeside camps are deserted. The boat launch is likewise empty when we pull into the parking area. There are five of us, and we've come here to capture loons.
