So, work has continued on the changes to walkways and the parking situation at the “Lighthouse” parking lot. Notice in the map the three areas marked as “protected bird habitat.” The two smaller areas are approximately 100 square feet and the larger one closer to 200. Too bad that the Michigan Audubon Society didn’t have a bigger presence here.
Walking north along Whitefish Point Road this is the new bike path.
Here is the new walkway that goes from the larger parking area on the west side of the road directly to the Shipwreck Museum. The right hand photo shows what had been “overflow” parking.
Looking south from “memory lane” this is the turn around for tour busses.
The view south from in front of the now closed Owl’s Roost. That’s the latest with the changes here. Now on to an “old memory.”
It was on June 9, 2020 at the peak of the first wave of the pandemic when Susan and I found a Yellow-throated Warbler near Tahqua Trail south of Whitefish Point. Just one of the many interested birds that has occurred north of the Tahquamenon River in recent years.
More later…
