Hi Larry;<br>
I'm not an expert on Pelee but the approach is fairly simple. <br>
1. Accommodations<br>
It may be difficult to find a motel/bed &amp; breakfast spot at this late
date. Perhaps in St. Thomas which is a distance away. However if you plan
to camp there's more opportunity.<br>
2. Birds are sufficient !!<br>
3. Get down to the Centre/parking lot around 5. Catch the first tram to
the Tip. Many birds fly to the Tip &amp; then after assessing the
situation fly south again. After seeing everything there walk back on the
main trail. Check at the Centre for good birds seen that morning. A list
is kept each day. Ask directions to the Louisiana Waterthrush.....good
birds on the way too. You'll hear about lots of birds (which ones to
chase??) if there's a good migration at the time (Sometimes the best time
is around the 10th but no one knows!).&nbsp; There are several excellent
marshes outside the Park that you should visit. There are also sewage
ponds but check on access. At certain ones they charge trespassers!!

Good birding, <br>
