Loon in Pierce Pond (2007) may be found all over Maine in its lakes and ponds. In winter they move closer to the coast where they fish in the ocean and bays. Loons are deep divers and swim great distances under water to avoid humand and predators. Some have been found tangled in nets 200 feet below the surface. At 28 to 36 inches, loons are the size of a goose but are more adapted to swimming than walking. On land they push with their legs and slide on their breasts.
