*Friday, March 5, 7:00 pm*
*Dark Side of the Loon*
Fee: donations welcome, food and beverages available
The eerie calls and striking black and white plumage of the common loon
captivate those of us who spend time on northern lakes and ponds between
April and October. Then the loons disappear. Quiet descends. Where do they
go? How do they survive in winter? Vermont Loon Biologist of the Vermont
Center for Ecostudies, Eric Hanson, will host the showing of this new
documentary <http://www.darksideoftheloon.com/> exploring the wintering life
of loons by Wolcott filmmaker and producer, Gail Osherenko.  Visit
