“Maine lakes may still be observed during moments of soundlessness. — in the pure luxury of quiet. Yet for those who long to hear those rare sounds once more, there is always the hope that there will be loons calling — breaking the silence with their wild arousing cries.’’
— Lee Kingman, in “Meditation in Maine,’’ in New England: The Four Seasons (1980)
Varieties of loons (called divers in Britain).
