Peche Island

Put in at the usual Belle Isle spot. Sun was shining, air temp about 50, water 63. Paddled up the water department channel and out into the river between Belle Isle and Peche Island. As I approached the light, I noticed an armada that appeared to consist of a dragon-style boat and 6-8 kayaks heading from the island to the Detroit side of the river. I was too far away to attempt to join up, so I got out of the wind on the Windsor side of Peche and paddled up stream. In a little cove across from the Windsor Yacht Club, I saw 5-6 Herons, 5-6 Egrets, many ducks, geese and cormorants. Got back into the wind and waves on the lake side of the island and ran back to Belle Isle on the Detroit side.
