Hello Ontario birders, Since the park has not posted about this here, and only briefly on Facebook and to a limited email list, I want to make sure that the Ontario birding community knows that Point Pelee National Park in Essex County is closed from January 7 to January 19 of this year for 'deer management'. Hopefully this message prevents people from making the trip in the next week only to find a closed park. From what I understand it will be open again after January 19.
I have no official affiliation with Point Pelee National Park or Parks Canada, so I have little information to offer beyond the above. Questions about this topic should go to Parks Canada or Point Pelee staff. I just think birders should know this in case anyone is planning a trip here in the coming week. Good birding!
