The loon, I think, makes one of the most solitary sounds that any bird could make; solitary in the sense that the instant one hears it one is immediately transported to the middle of nowhere, possibly to a cabin in the woods with no electricity, and the applicable nearby creepy body of water. It's a noise the camping and cottaging Canadian is familiar with. I like the sound, but I don't like camping. My body was not meant to live in a place without all the better amenities of modern living; like toilets, and showers, and electricity, and no bugs.
