The Ottawa Field-Naturalists are doing a four-day birding trip to Point Pelee this May. Spring migration at Point Pelee is famous. It's one of the best spots for it in all North America. I've never been there before.
I called today and:
- Every single spot is taken--except one. (I had no idea it would fill up so
fast. Okay, so they warned me "reserve early to avoid disappointment", but I
thought they were just, you know, saying that.)
- The one remaining spot requires me to stay in a single-occupancy hotel
room for the duration, resulting in a trip cost of approximately $900 instead
of $450. Aiieee!
- I have a big wad of unspent gift money from last Christmas+birthday that just about totals the above.
