These are eared grebes which nest in large colonies in shallow vegetation filled sloughs here in SD. Babies have hatched in the past week and get to hitch a free ride on mom for a few days until they get too big, dad is doing most of the hunting.

They really raise a racket with each other in spring. I can imagine what amazing close ups you'd take of loons. With their red eyes. http://www.illustrationsinmotion.com/index.html

We have 5 species of grebes here, red-necked are here sporadically and you are right they like to make noise. I photographed Westerns and Clark’s several weeks ago sitting on nests and hope to get back now that littles are out. Breeding plumage looks are on the bucket list.
