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.
