The evening’s program, “Bermuda’s Treasure Island,” is the story of the Bermuda petrel. This remarkable and compelling award-winning film was created and produced by Deirdre Brennan, Castletown Productions, New York, N.Y. and was an entry in the 2006 Wildlife Film Festival in Missoula, Mont. and the 2007 Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival.

Brennan has served as judge for the annual Explorers Club Documentary Film Festival since 2003. She is a member of Filmmakers for Conservation and the Explorers Club. Her current project is the production of the film Atlantic Salmon – Lost at Sea.

Bermuda’s legendary seabird, the Cahow, was thought to be extinct for more than 300 years. It was rediscovered in 1951 on a few rocky islets where, miraculously, it survived undetected over the centuries.

Step back in time to pre-colonial Bermuda on Nonsuch Island. This once-barren island was restored by one man, David Wingate, who planted 800 native trees and shrubs in order to create a suitable habitat for one of the rarest sea birds in the world, the Bermuda petrel (the Cahow). Nonsuch Island is now a refuge for all of Bermuda’s native flora and fauna.

This is a compelling story of one man’s devoted conservation effort to save a critically endangered species.
