Point Pelee offers virtual spring bird migration POINT PELEE — While the birds will still come, Parks Canada is encouraging Canadians to stay local and explore in their own neighbourhood, instead of traveling to Point Pelee National Park for spring migration.

tual migration activities from May 1 to May 24. Follow the park on Facebook where they will share bird identification tips, interesting facts, and amazing images featuring some of their favourite spring migrants, many that you can see from your own yard, balcony, or neighbourhood.

Participate in virtual lunch and learn sessions from the comfort of your own home and learn from birding experts on various topics. Presenters will air in real-time to provide a unique, educational experience for everyone to enjoy. The live session schedule is available on the Point Pelee website. Make exploring your neighbour-

hood a priority and keep a checklist. You may be surprised at what you see in your own neighbourhood and at local parks and conservation areas. You can also participate in the OFO Birding from Home challenge. All in-park programming, including the 2021 Festival of Birds at Point Pelee National Park, has been cancelled. Although the park remains open, visitors should not expect the same kind of experience they’ve had in the past as vehicle access, parking and visitor services are significantly reduced. Parks Canada strongly advises all visitors to act in accordance with the provincial restrictions to help limit the spread of COVID-19 by cancelling their travel plans and going no farther than necessary to access outdoor spaces. Know before you go: For locals who still decide to visit the park, Point Pelee National Park’s website provides detailed information on what is closed, what visitors can expect, and what services may or may not be available. The park’s Facebook page has important tips on when the park will be busiest (and possibly at capacity) and how to prepare for a visit if you do decide to travel from within the local area to the park. Visit the website at parkscanada.gc.ca/pelee/ covid19 and follow our Facebook page at facebook. com/PointPeleeNP. Please check back regularly for updates.
