If you’ve ever heard it, you know that Loons have a very distinctive call like no other bird. Their calls echo over many hundreds of Canada’s lakes in spring, summer and fall. But, if you’ve ever seen a loon, you’ll know that they also have very special markings like no other bird. The Secret of the Loon’s Necklace is the traditional Indigenous legend of how the loons got their special neck and back markings. It is the story of old Kelora, a self-proclaimed medicine man who is almost blind. Mocked by almost his whole tribe, he proves that there is still magic in the land of humans and animals. He also proves that being old doesn’t mean you can’t use that magic to help your family and community. The old and those with disabilities, too, have value in our communities. His story shows how much more we can achieve when we work together and respect each other.

A blind man named Misho is treated with respect by his community. The village has set up a special place for the man so he can easily find his way. The man carried many stories and teachings and had found an important role in his community. He appreciated all of creation despite his blindness. The Great Spirit decided to assist this gifted person by returning his sight. One day Misho hears the sound of wings passing overhead along with a bird's special call. The loons gladly gave up their sight so this special person could see the magnificence of the earth. In return Misho gifted the birds with white shell necklaces. As time passed the man empathized with the blind birds and asked for the return of their sight in exchange for his original blindness. The Creator complied. As a result the birds received the white shell beads and the loons forever carry these white patches on their backs.
