Beaver Attack while Loons Preparing for their Fourth Egg

Our loons on LoonCam 2 have been having a difficult season. We have exciting news, however, as they have successfully laid their fourth egg! Yet, this achievement still came with many struggles. As the loons were trying to mate on the mud flats, an aggressive beaver ran out and scared the female loon away. She still preserved and laid a fourth egg in their second nesting attempt about 58 hours after the third egg was laid. They worked on fixing their nest once again to welcome the egg.
