Sarah’s notes: Loons! ❤️ This summer, a pair of baby loonlets were born on Lake Morey. I was out in my kayak at least twice a week to check on these babies. It was fascinating to watch both parents take care of them and teach them how to become independent. My very first pictures of the loonlets are either Day 1 or Day 2 of life. My last picture was taken just a week ago, and I was so happy to see that my babies could fly. The parents have left the lake already, and soon the loonlets will fly off. This video is a compilation of my best loon photos from this summer. They are in chronological order, so you can watch them grow in my video. What a joy to watch one of nature’s great miracles. ❤️
The proposed changes to the Use of Public Water Rules
and wakesports regulations:
The public comment period for the proposed changes to the Use of Public Waters rules ended in February. The Agency of Natural Resources (ANR) has been reviewing the comments and is expected to submit final rules to the Legislative Committee on Administrative Rules (LCAR) by the end of April.
The DEC is proposing the following changes to the current rules:
-
Update the language on how to delegate to municipalities, review and submit petitions, and inspect and decontaminate
(or clean) watercraft, -
Increase safety offsets between wakesports and other recreational users,
-
Revise the wakesports zone definition, and
-
Require hot water decontamination for wakeboats moving between water bodies.
As we learn more, will update this section.
