OFO Field Trip Participants & others: Those birders travelling South to the Point Pelee Field Trip on Sun. Sept. 27th are reminded that there is strictly"No Access" to the Blenheim Lagoons at that time. Those having free time may wish to visit Rondeau, or the nature trails at Erieau. [ email me privately if you wish info on the Erieau trails ]
Sunday, Oct. 04th---The lagoon supervisor phoned me this morning. Work at the lagoons has fallen behind, due to mechanical problems, etc. He has agreed to let birders in on Sunday, Oct.04 [ only ! ]. The combination lock will be in place during regular work hours--for Sunday, I believe that to be 8:a.m--until 5:00 p.m.. There will be "RESTRICTIONS" in place. Pond # 3 will have "No Access!". Bars/ poles/ and/or Tape will be in place to mark that area. Trip leaders are to insist that this area "not be crossed ". You may use the berms closest to the road to arrive at the building & sprinklers. This will [ or should be] my last update until lagoon work is complete. Please adhere to all restrictions lest we lose free & complete access.
