TURNER PUBLISHING • July 7, 2021

The 38th annual Loon Count will be held Saturday, July 17, and Maine Audubon and Rangeley Lakes Heritage Trust will coordinate volunteers throughout the Rangeley Lakes region. There are more than 40 survey areas that still need volunteers, said Hanz Berger, regional coordinator. That includes the entirety of Aziscohos Lake, with 12 survey areas, and Umbagog Lake, with 14 survey areas. The count takes half an hour — from 7 to 7:30 a.m. The event is coordinated effort to avoid duplicate counts. Contact headwaters@rlht.org.
