Loons are falling from the sky in Wisconsin.

The folks at the Raptor Education Group in Antigo say Wisconsin’s recent cold snap is too much for the birds, and is freezing their feathers and forcing them out of the skies. Loons can only fly and swim, so there’s no opportunity for them to land where there’s no water. The Raptor Group says it’s gotten calls from Wausau, Stratford, Rice Lake, and other places in northern Wisconsin. Volunteers and vets check out the birds to make sure they are safe to be released back into the wild.
