' Date of Publication: August 10. 1983 Swallows flock to Pembroke WOODS, WATER AND WILDLIFE by Arlin Hackman - Federation of Ontario Ontario Naturalists We've all heard about swallows returning to Capistrano. Well it so happens happens they are also partial to Pembroke, although no one has written a song yet. Unknown to all but a few individuals, for at least twenty twenty years swallows have come to spend the summer nights in greater and greater numbers at an undistinguished site on the Ottawa River shore within Pembroke city limits. But their currently spectacular spectacular numbers, estimated to range as high as 50 - 75,000, could disperse overnite if plans afoot to redevelop Pembroke's waterfront fail to maintain this haven. Six species of swallows are native to Ontario and, on the whole, display a remarkable tolerance for human activities. activities. The most common clan representatives, Barn Swallows, are almost an inevitable inevitable feature of bur rural environment, building their mud pellet nests with perfect confidence among the joists and beams of stables and sheds. Here they raise two or more broods each year. Purple Purple Martins, the largest species, of which the males are actually more black than purple, are often landmarks as well, especially when they inhabit. large man-made colony colony houses. Together with their relatives the Bank, Tree, Cliff, and Rough-winged Swallows, these' insect-eating birds journey to Ontario each spring from South America and Mexico. Prior to departing again in late Summer or early Fall, swallows commonly congregate congregate in family groups. But according to officials with the Canadian Wildlife Service, the vast flock of at least four species, which annually invades invades the two or three acre willow and alder stand at the mouth of the Muskrat, River, is quite likely unique in Canada. If's also quite a spectacle. Just before dusk on a midsummer midsummer night the first waves decend, swirling and swooping swooping by the thousands, display- 1 ing that grace and beauty in flight which has earned swallows a prominent place in art and literature. As darkness sets in, the fun and games taper off as the arrival rate shoots up to 1,000 per minute and every available . perch is quickly taken. Federal scientists still don't know the whole story. But their initial comments clearly support efforts by local naturalists such as Will Clark to seek protection for the site. In fact, with careful management to maintain the habitat and orient visitors, this annual performance should continue indefinitely and provide a rare tourism opportunity as well. Mr. Clark intends to present present this proposal to the Pembroke Pembroke economic development committee which is currently reviewing proposals-for housing housing and recreational development development along the Ottawa River, including the swallow staging paint. It is a propo'sal which deserves serious study and a positive response. Sizzling Ontario Pork Chops and Ribs All pork chops are tender. Butterfly chops from the boneless loin are the most expensive. Centre-cut loin hate some of the tenderloin so are next on the price scale. Rib chops have no tenderloin so are less expensive. Shoulder chops are the most economical. For tasty results purchase pale grayish-pink, finely textured, marbled chops at least 2 cm (3/4 inch) thick for slow cooking over the coals. Food consultants for the Ontario Pork Producers Marketing Board find all chops are best if barbecued over low to moderate heat, about 20 to 25 minutes per side. The meat is done when il is no longer pink. A small siit made next to the bone will reveal the color of the meat. Back, side or country-style ribs are winners on the barbecue. Side ribs are the cheapest but back ribs are more meaty. For juicy, tender ribs, precook them before barbecuing barbecuing them slowly over low heal.
