Manchester - Scientists are struggling to explain the rare death of 17 loons in 
New Hampshire, saying warm weather may have confused the threatened species of 
bird which typically heads to the ocean for winter.

              That perches in the soulAnd sings the tune without the words      
    And never stops at all." --Emily
