Mohawk Island is a small (4 hectares (9.9 acres)) island in the northeast of Lake Erie, in Haldimand County, Ontario, Canada. It is composed of limestone with almost no vegetation, and is close to the water level. It was formerly known as Gull Island and contains the ruins of the Gull Island Lighthouse which was built in 1848 to guide ships into the Welland Canal at Port Maitland. In 1933, the lighthouse was automated to no longer require a human keeper and lost significance in 1934 due to the realignment of the canal at Port Colborne. It was decommissioned in 1969 when the mechanism was destroyed by a fire. The lighthouse is located close to the shore of Rock Point Provincial Park.

  • L'île Mohawk est une île située au nord-est du lac Érié dans le comté de Haldimand en Ontario au Canada. Elle est composée de calcaire presque dénué de toute végétation, et n'a qu'une très faible hauteur par rapport au niveau des eaux. Elle sert notamment de colonie pour le goéland hudsonien, le goéland à bec cerclé, le cormoran à aigrettes et la sterne caspienne. Ses eaux limitrophes sont aussi visitées par les oiseaux migrateurs, comme le canard colvert, la bernache du Canada, le garrot à œil d'or, les fuligules et les bécasseaux. (fr)
