We have a good report about the incident over the weekend when someone on a jet ski pulling a water skier endangered the loon family in the middle pond.

Henretta took a ride down there Sunday morning and spotted the jet ski being loaded by one of the rental cottages at Point Comfort.  She talked to the young men and found they were unaware they had done anything wrong - they were circling in order for friends to get pictures of the skier, etc., and not intentionally harassing the birds.  Henretta said they were polite and contrite.

We owe Henretta a big thank you for having the  courage to do that.  It's sometimes hard to approach strangers about something they've done, but she did it in a nice way and they understood.  I'm sure they'll watch out for wildlife from now on. 

We'll hope the loon family was able to settle down after their harrowing experience.
