    Loon \Loon\ (l[=oo]n), n. [Scot. loun, lown, loon; akin to OD.

    Loon \Loon\, n. [For older loom, Icel. l[=o]mr; akin to Dan. &
    Sw. lom.] (Zo["o]l.)
    Any one of several aquatic, wed-footed, northern birds of the
    genus {Urinator} (formerly {Colymbus}), noted for their
    expertness in diving and swimming under water. The common
    loon, or great northern diver ({Urinator imber}, or {Colymbus
    torquatus}), and the red-throated loon or diver ({Urinator
    septentrionalis}), are the best known species. See {Diver}.

    1. The loon needs the clear, clean waters of remote lakes because "they depend on eyesight to catch fish under water," Henderson says.
    2. The legs are set far back on the body, behind the balance point, so a loon has difficulty walking.
    3. It may also have something to do with the fact that I was the only sober person at the party." It all started out of concern for the loon.
    4. It is nicknamed for its design of a loon, the bird that makes its distinctive call in many northern Canadian lakes.
