But, six days a year, this birding paradise is transformed into a battleground. It becomes home to one of the country's biggest bird hunts -- the Pelee Island Pheasant Hunt. Overnight, the island's tiny community of 300 is overrun by some 2,100 hunters. Why do islanders allow it? The answer is simple: without the income from the hunt, the community would simply disappear. FEATHERLAND is a personal, dreamy meditation on islands, community, the idea of paradise, and our deep, strange connection with birds. Written by Anonymous See less
