Lavaloid

This weekend, we have TWO contests running simultaneously! Puzzle GP Round 3 and Puzzle Ramayan Round 3 are both starting today. As always, we give out Otters 🦦 for everyone who participates in these contests. If you participate in both, you can get two otters! 🦦 🦦

What do you get when you cross a Detour with a Rail Pool? This genre, apparently. Today's GAPP is a Sew a Loop, which is the first genre we've featured by @Blaž Urban Gracar.

Rules:
- Draw a single orthogonal loop through centers of all cells.
- For every visit to a clued region, the number of turns in the loop segment during that visit must be one of the numbers given in the region.
- Each number in a clued region must correspond to at least one loop segment.

Finish the puzzle in 3:00 or less for a Speedy Sloth 🦥!
Finish the puzzle in 6:00 or less for a Quick Crab 🦀!
Finish with any time at all for a Tailorbird 🐦!
