'LOON!' film red-carpet event, premiere at Grand Theatre in Crookston Aug. 20

They’re a feast for our eyes as we take in their impressive size, striking black and white feathers and their piercing crimson-red yes. Their beautiful, haunting calls echoing from our many lakes and rivers can make us stop what we’re doing and listen intently.
