SUMMARY:Amherst Island Fossil Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Amherst Island is located just south of Kingston. We will meet at the Ferry at 10:00 am. After a short ferry ride at 10:30 am\, we plan to visit two fossil locations: 11:00 am at Topsy Farms and in the afternoon at the far south-east end of island near the bird sanctuary. \nNote:  We did attempt to find a fossil location near Ottawa but quarries are getting more and more restrictive while the other possible fossil locations are on property where collecting is not allowed.  We are in discussions with our sister club: EONS. \nLast year the group who went to Amherst Island did find some excellent fossils and the Topsy Farm is willing to let us go on their private beach. \nEnjoy the unique Irish dry stone walls along the drive. \nOther activities available are: \n\nBeautiful sandy beach: Back Beach Park and Sand Beach Wetlands Conservation Area\nNeilson Store Museum\nOwl Woods\nKingston Field Naturalists Bird Sanctuary\nIn Stella: General Store\, Back Kitchen Restaurant\nTopsy Farms: meet the animals\, view their products\n\n \n \nFossils include crinoids\, brachiopods\, bryozoan\, snails\, corals\, trilobites about 400-450 million years old. It is a short walk from parking areas.  A detailed ID guide will provided to all attendees.
