How long each year do loons stay within their summer (breeding) range?
Loons return to northern forested lakes and rivers in the springtime, usually in April or early May. The breeding range includes Alaska and northern Canada south to Washington, Montana, Minnesota, Wisconsin and New Hampshire. Breeding loons, like those radiomarked in this study, left breeding areas in late October to early November. Loons spend the winter season along the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts.
