During April we opened the Lighthouse Interpretive Centre on most sunny Sundays. Almost five hundred people visited the Centre on those sunny Sundays, enjoyed the exhibits and even made some purchases in our Gift Shop. Programs are in place to view the elusive Whimbrel and colourful warblers during this, the traditional peak weekend of spring bird migration. Park staff will participate in bird walks, bird banding and evening programs throughout the weekend. Don Shanahan, an expert local birder and trip leader with Nature Travel Holidays is the host.
Space is still available.
Presqu'ile Park's Friends Annual Meeting will be held, as usual, on the first Saturday in June. Don't miss this event. Please look for the date and our invitation elsewhere in this Beacon. The agenda is simple. Canada Day celebrations are currently being planned.
