111: Common Loon w/ Ivan Phillipsen!

Join Ellen & special guest, naturalist Ivan Phillipsen, for a review of the iconic common loon! In this episode, we discuss why they got stuck with such a rude name, how they’ve managed to master both water AND air, and the hidden meanings behind those ethereal (and slightly spooky) songs in the night.  Ivan's podcast, The Science of Birds, can be found wherever you get your podcasts.
