Durham Region staff asked me to pass on the message that a small part of the lagoons will be closed to the public for approximately the next 3 weeks. I will advise via this forum and Facebook when full access returns.
Specifically, the northern part of lagoon 3 (counting from the east) is closed to the public. When you enter the lagoons and travel along the access road on the north edge of the lagoons, you will come to a series of pylons partially blocking the road. You are NOT permitted to go any further in this westerly direction along this roadway. You must at that point either turn back and travel south along the east edge of the eastern most lagoon (#1) or go south on the berm between lagoons 1 and 2. All the rest of the berms are open. However, when you finish your circuit you cannot enter the restricted area from the west either. Again pylons will be placed across the roadway partially blocking it. Access for Durham staff vehicles is being left open in the restricted area, so even though it appears that the road is partially open, it is not. Please adhere strictly to this restriction that Durham staff have put in place. Any questions pls email me privately. thanks Geoff Geoff Carpentier AVOCET NATURE SERVICES Contact me at: 905-852-2011 or avocetnatureservi...@gmail.com Visit my website: www.avocetnatureservices.com Specializing in Environmental & Natural History Surveys and Group & Personalized Guiding Services _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
