2011 Photo Contest: Birds
"Friend Island is in an ideal location for afternoon picnics or 'shoal hopping' on the open bay. Being a high use location, it has seen its fair share of issues over the years, namely garbage, and dozens of fire pits. Because of action by the GBLT and its volunteers, this has changed. As a result the island has reverted back to a pristine condition. I chose to become the steward for Friend Island because I've spent nearly every summer of my life along the shores of Georgian Bay, and I want to make sure it stays protected for years to come. The GBLT and all its volunteers make sure this will happen."
