	Rondeau Provincial Park
		Over 30 mammal species have been observed in the park and amphibians and reptiles (eg, turtles, toads, fox snakes) are well represented.
		Rondeau is renowned for bird life: 323 species have been recorded; 124 have nested in the park and 80% of all species found in Ontario have been seen here, including the rare prothonotary WARBLER.
		Thereafter, it was used for naval purposes, exploited for timber, waterfowl, fur bearers and fish and, in the late 1800s, developed for hotels and tourism.

	Rondeau Provincial Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The park is an important stopover for birds during migration and has been identified as a Canadian Important Bird Area.
		Limited hunting of White-tailed Deer has been permitted within the park to control deer numbers because these animals no longer have any natural predators and they are thought to pose a threat to the park's forested areas.
		The name of the park comes from the French words "ronde eau" or "round water" which describes the shape of the harbour sheltered by the peninsula.

	UNUSUAL NESTING HABITATS OF THREE BIRD SPECIES IN RONDEAU PROVINCIAL PARK, ONTARIO
		Richard Ussher, in detailing some of the history of the park (Judd and Speirs, 1967:167-169), states that "White-tailed deer have played a prominent part in the recent life of the park" and for a period of 30 years (1912-1942) seedlings of most species of trees and undergrowth were destroyed by deer browsing.
		This, of course, opened up most of the understory of the park to such species as the three in question, as did the old sugar roads and the dying of many of the trees in the sloughs.
		Many of the larger broad-leaved trees in Rondeau Park, such as beeches, maples, and tulip poplars, are up to four feet in diameter as this portion of the park was never systematically logged.

		This study had two main objectives: (1) to characterize and compare the plant community composition and light levels of degraded and restored oak savanna remnants in these parks in 2000, and (2) to assess the effects of specific restoration efforts (prescribed burns, deer herd reductions and deer exclusion) in Pinery (1994 - 2000).
		Multivariate analysis of the understory plant community showed that many species were common to all parks and community types.
		Light levels varied widely both within and among parks, and canonical correspondence analysis revealed a clear gradient in species composition associated with light.
