The Docks Go Out Today on Lake Francis Cottages Rentals, South Bruce Peninsula

Bass Fishing-Lake Francis Cottages

Today and tomorrow will be busy days. With some help, we will be putting the docks in at our Waterfront Cottages. This consists of a 30 ft. extended  dock and an attached floating dock for your relaxing and tanning pleasures. It allows you to have sun all day long  and is also a great way to dock a boat. Many Sauble Beach Rentals, cottages for rent in and around The South Bruce Peninsula,  Georgian Bay and Lake Huron area may not be able to have this type of dock because of the waves off shore. We will use an ATV as well as man power to put these in. When it is done it looks so inviting and ready for the summer months that are right around the corner.  The lake is very clean and the Bass are in sight. This weekend I am sure my kids will be out fishing trying to catch the first Bass of the season. Of course they will catch and release. This lake is absolutely a Great Bass fishing spot. The weather is getting better everyday which also means I am going to put my Baltimore Oriole and Humming bird feeders out  so they can nest  on the properties here on Lake Francis in South Bruce Peninsula. Well, better get going or I will never get this all done!

Piping Plovers Nesting South Bruce Peninsula; Sauble Beach

Piping Plovers bird watching

Sauble Beach became even more a very Special place  in May of 2007 with the discovery of a pair of Piping Plovers nesting. Thirteen  year old Brendon from Metcalfe Ontario spotted the adult pair at the north end of Sauble Beach. A keen birder Brendon identified the birds immediately as being Piping Plovers. They  have a black collar and a black band above the white forehead.  The bird is highly endangered, the last time it was found nesting anywhere in Southern Ontario was in Oliphant 35 years ago. The nesting site had an exclusion fence to keep gulls and other predators from eating the 4 eggs. The first chick hatched July 3 but disappeared but the remaining chicks hatched on July 5 and were banded 12 days later. Let’s hope the chicks survive adulthood and that the Piping Plover will continue to make the Sauble area its home once again!
