Loons share their magical sound as loonatics search Lake County for migrating bird

This column has a soundtrack, and you might know the one. Imagine yourself in the North Woods on a summer night, next to a clear, quiet lake. Now listen for the haunting calls of a common loon piercing the darkness. That’s it, that’s what I’m hearing. Recently, I was thrilled to hear those same yodels and wails just 50 miles from my Glen Ellyn doorstep. I was in Lake County for my first Loonapaloonza.
