Good Morning from Peche Island

The island was formed from a peninsula of the Canadian shore by the action of the Detroit River. There is a central marsh on the island. The present channel was eroded until the core of the island remained. There are man-made channels cut through the island to ensure fresh water supply and recreational opportunities. The island's flora and fauna have been heavily impacted by human activity, and the forest is the result of a rehabilitation program.

The Eagle's Nest

You'll have a hard time spotting the eagles on Peche Island and the Detroit River. You'll have a harder time finding their nest. This was my lucky day.
