 Point Pelee

We were in the area and decided to stop in at Point Pelee National Park for a couple of hours. The 1 km Boardwalk Trail was our first walk where we saw a nice selection of marsh birds.

Sandhill Crane

A very distant Wilson's Snipe caught our eye.

An immature Common Gallinule

Boardwalk Scenery

A Pied-billed Grebe entertained us by diving for food close to the boardwalk.

Wild Turkey invasion at the DeLaurier Homestead  parking lot. We counted a total of 14 Turkeys!

Monarchs have mostly passed through Canada's most southern point, but there are still have few stragglers including one that appears to be flying past the moon!
