With regularity we gratefully feast on the recounting of your daily observations within the confines of your sphere of influence (the Humber Trail, north) and those reports, while remote from my location, still serve to sustain my interest in the natural world that I cannot explore myself due to other duties.
Wouldn’t it be great if other members would ‘cover’ other precincts with such devotion? I mean Paul O’Toole is pretty much the king in Kingston and Steve Hood can be relied upon to do the rondo at Rondeau, while Dinu is the master of reporting at the outer edges of this forum’s jurisdiction by piloting his hybrid puddle-jumper at a moment’s notice. Still, there are so many local hot-spots that remain open to reporters-in-stasis. I wish I could read your reports on paper with a morning coffee instead of a computer screen. Imagine a paper dedicated to the GTA wilds … The Daily Perch … although that might be confused with a periodical on fishing. How about The Daily Sylvan … ? Anyway, just report from the heart with the brain as navigator and you will retain an audience for your confessions from the dork side.
