Presqu’ile Park Crossings
September brings a host of fabulous activities to Presqu’ile Provincial Park Friends of Presqu’ile Park . Located half way between Toronto and Kingston, Ontario, this finger of heritage property juts out into Lake Ontario and forms one side of the Brighton Bay. The point is home of the famous Presqu’ile Light House a welcomed beacon to thousands of early mariners. These days there is a flurry of wild life activity at the park. Monarch Butterflies are gathering for their annual migration to Mexico and this weekend many of the butterflies will be tagged in order to track their journey. Gathering on shrubs and trees these beautiful creatures are resting, feeding and awaiting those favourable winds that will assist them in their journey across the lake and southward. The Labour Day weekend also marks the end of the interdenominational church services help each Sunday in the open air theatre at the Park. But it does not end there. This is the time when Park Turtles are on the move. Laying their eggs and preparing for winter. As well, there are guided tours to observe the bird life in the Park Presqu’ile Provincial Park. September is a wondrous time throughout Northumberland County. The trees are beginning to show their fall colours across the hills and don’t forget those incredible fall fairs. Many are happening right now. Here at Loughbreeze Bay B&B we are looking forward to seeing you!
