Newcastle Vllage & District Historical Society presents Home Peelee Island Trhe trip 10 Peelee Island with BUil Bunting is 110w history but it does leave some pleasant and interesting memories. If il was a matter of only birding-the decision to go,.10 Peelee Island may have been a mîstake over that of taking in the birding exercises at Point Peelee. But the deci- sion had been made and there were side interests to which one adjusîs. Although we enjoyed the field trips for birds an added dimension existed through the diversity of the group of nineteen wýho boarded the ferry for the voyage to the Isiand. Within the t wo days together it became a family group of individual interests, accomplishmnents and under- takings. These ranged from the housewife with a keen, knowledgeable interest in the environnient, an engineer in computers withi IBMI, anI in- surance broker with con- tiniuous barter, secretaries, a prini and proper lîbrarian, Iwo ladies who world travel even though they have to be close to thleir sevenities. You could add to this list a j oung mother wt a familyý of three wvith a keen interesî in birdinig and supported in her desires by hier hus,ýbanid who, however, lacked any i- terest in birding, lncluded in the group of nineteen were our thiree leaders, a biologist loaded with know.ýledge in bis field and that of birdsý, a secretary fromt Queen 's, University who somnehowv or other got 10 Peelee Island even though she does not own al car and the head hon- cho of the tour, a rousi-about sort of chap, wvho apparently survives on a summrrer job, but volunteers his tune and knowledge for such outings as the bird week-end at the Island and Main Land. You might begin to wonder what the trip\was ail about but il was birding and this siatted shortlyv before 6:00 a.m.ý and continued until at leasi seven i the laie after- noon. Dinner of pani-fried. fre.sh Lake Erie Perchi and Pickerel and roasît pheasant were the main choices of the group and the social lasted at Ieast for two and a haîf ho0ur S, As to birds the Common Egr-et (simular to a Great Blue Heronl but totally white) wýas a lnw find f'or thie two froni S Ono(', as A s a Bal1d Hýeaded Engle, a yellow headed blackbird and a numnber oif warblers.
