Hello all!  
 
You cannot fully appreciate island life unless you sleep on  an island.  
Here's your chance:
 
The Door Islands Bird Festival is being held this coming week-end June 5  
and 6 on Washington Island, also birding on Rock Island and observing the  
cormorant colonies and other "seabirds" from a boat at the edge of Pilot  
Island.  There are lighthouses to photograph and inspect, clean  air to inhale 
deeply, and the peace of isolation from daily  pressures.   
 
The banquet topic will be Purple Martins by Dick Nikolai, master bander and 
 Purple Martin worker extraordinaire.  And a photo workshop with Pat  Redig 
to help you with trying to win the photo contest.
 
The birds are great, both migrating and breeding.  And you will  experience 
the rhythms of island life which truly are different from living on  the 
mainland.
 
For more information go to doorislandsbirdfest.org   (islands is  plural)
 
Sandy-Ursula Petersen, Director
