An educational forum dedicated to the study, promotion, appreciation and conservation of the flora and fauna within Prince Edward County.
At monthly meetings, guest speakers make presentations on topics related to nature that are of interest to club members. Everyone is encouraged to participate by sharing their experiences and observations. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have hosted our meetings via Zoom, but we look forward to greeting members and friends in person once more when health considerations allow us to.
Regularly scheduled field trips offer members the opportunity to learn about and experience habitats around the County and beyond.

hillip Mercier is best known to us as the Bander-in-Charge at Prince Edward Point Bird Observatory. He is an Environmental Biologist, having studied at McGill, and is a professional bird -bander and ornithologist. He is probably the best thing to have happened at PEPtBO in a long time. Aside from his knowledge and experience, his enthusiasm, patience and sense of humour have gained the respect of everyone at the Bird Observatory.
Phillip will talk about Prince Edward Point and why it is such an important area for migration, as well as some info about some of the rare and endangered birds that pass through.
