National Capital Region Wildlife Festival
Did you know we had our own Wildlife Festival right here in the National Capital Region? To help celebrate National Wildlife Week, this annual festival offers an array of events and activities ranging from environmental awards to birdwatching to wildlife conservation forums.
The Ottawa Public Library is joining in on the fun too by hosting a series of related slide shows and presentations. For a full list of festival events, click on Events 2007 on the festival's Website (on the left-hand side of the screen).
Events aside, my favourite part of the festival's offerings is a user-friendly list of 50 hiking trails, parks and conservation areas in and around the area. On the site's left-hand side menu, click on Nature Trails Legend & Brochure; once on the screen titled On the Trail of Mother Nature, click on printer friendly brochure or colour trail brochure to view the list.
I like the idea of celebrating National Wildlife Week in my own backyard. Don't you?
