Got a fly by from a snowy owl today at the east end of Amherst Island. Owls woods had 2 Northern Saw-whet Owls; 1 Barred Owl, & 1 Boreal Owl. On the way in I counted 37 cars, no issue to report all went well.

Exit off Hwy. 401 at exit 593 (County Rd. 4, Camden East) and drive south to the very end (Millhaven). Turn right on Hwy. 33 and drive 100 metres until you see the sign for the Amherst Island ferry. The ferry (20 minute trip) leaves the mainland on the half hour and leaves the island on the hour. Cost is $8.00 Canadian round trip. There are no gas stations on the island. There are restrooms on the ferry, and at the island ferry dock.
