The Turtle Flambeau Flowage loons have been very vocal.

You may have noticed loons calling more often, especially at dusk. As fall approaches, loon families begin preparing for migration. Parents use vocalizations to communicate with their young, teaching them the distinct calls they'll need when they leave for warmer waters. Males also become more territorial, warning off any lingering loons that aren't part of their family unit.
