网址:http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/on/pelee/index.aspx 皮利角国家公园(Point Pelee National Park),位于安省的西南,于温莎市东南50公里处, 是加拿大最南端的、最小、也是最具特殊性的公园。进入公园,有免费的公园车20分钟一班,载大家到最南端参观最南端。走到尽头,陆地成一个明显的倒三角的形状插入湖中,为两种水流得 交汇处,能清晰地看见交集的分界线。走在这个锐角三角形上,一边是惊涛骇浪,一边却风平浪静,能明显的感觉到不同。因而有“Tip of Canada”的美誉。 3 V p5 H! ?- O- [4 Z

Point Pelee National Park也是观候鸟和蝴蝶迁徙的好地方,此处位于北纬42度的伊利湖北岸, 据说和罗马和巴塞罗那的纬度是一样的。由于地理环境、气候、土壤,加上湖畔的沙丘,适合各式 各样花草树木的生长。同时也引来稀有昆虫、以及动物栖息。 这里是每年北美侯鸟南北迁徙(Spring and Autumn Migration)必经之途。故有"the park the birds built"之美誉。 这个国家公园,20平方公里的面积,混合了多种动植物形态,湿地、卡罗林纳州式丛林森林、南美式牧草地以及海滨沙滩四种地貌,成为大量动物包括松鼠、浣熊、黄鼠狼、貂、蛇和共计上百种鸟类包括啄木鸟、黄莺、燕子、猫头鹰、红眼雀、布谷鸟等的栖息地。海滨上则是湖鸥、乌鸦和白头翁的家园。5月的第2、3周是最佳的观鸟时机。2 L: n& H- O, O/ P& I8 D- g" _, P
