This came today from Steve and Bev Allen:
Yesterday evening and again this afternoon we have seen the pair of Loons on the 3rd Pond with what appears to be just one chick.  Has anyone else noticed this?  Hope the Eagle isn't enjoying free lunch on the Pond.

 I believe this is what Evelyn was mentioning, that one of the chicks does seem to be missing - now for almost a week - and that the eagle may be the culprit.  The chick that was observed being taken by an eagle in Peacham "somehow survived," but as Evelyn said, ours may not have been as fortunate.  Let us know if anyone has seen both chicks on the third pond recently.
