A must-read by Corey Myers, who operates a lodge in the Thaidene Nëné Indigenous Protected Area, on why the Seal River Watershed IPCA will deliver major benefits for everyone in Manitoba (and beyond). https://t.co/i5Z6vFc9Mo

Get the facts about the proposed Seal River Watershed IPCA, and then share your feedback during the public consultation period (ending June 2). https://t.co/wqFP0tUk3m

Nearly 400 bird species rely on the boreal for nesting or migration. Each year up to 5 billion birds fly south. They eat insects, spread seeds, and delight bird watchers across the hemisphere.

Delays in the signing of the Nunavut Land Use Plan has led to "unguided development that is harming Inuit harvesting and conservation interests" according to the Friends of Land Use Planning. #Arctic

Tiny bird, huge journey! The Blackpoll Warbler breeds in northern forests, some flying nonstop over water for 72+ hours on their way to South America.

Protecting the boreal helps protect migrations across continents. Learn more: https://t.co/jVhPhIhWzr

On #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, join us in watching Birds on the Move—a four-part documentary series tracking bird migration and the people and places it touches, from Canada to Cali, Colombia. https://t.co/ktIJVozlH7

For #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, look north! Nearly 400 bird species rely on North America’s Boreal Forest for nesting or migratory habitat, making it one of the planet’s most important bird nurseries. Protecting the boreal protects birds across North America.

Help ensure the Seal River Watershed becomes permanently protected for White-throated Sparrows, Common Loons, Hudsonian Whimbrels, Tennessee Warblers, Lesser Yellowlegs, polar bears, belugas, caribou, & countless other species. Learn more & take action! https://t.co/DCHBk1CfMT

The Seal River Watershed is a critically important breeding and migratory stop-over location for millions of birds of hundreds of species. @AudubonCAN applauds this huge step towards permanent protections. 👏👏👏 https://t.co/bqMAmhGDX9

Audubon's work to address climate change & biodiversity loss is powered by partnerships. In Canada, for example, Audubon collaborates with Indigenous governments & organizations on some of the largest conservation initiatives in the world. Happy #EarthDay! https://t.co/X34u6eJFl1

[Audubon's Canada Program @AudubonCAN]

Great news! A proposal from First Nations, the Government of Canada, and the Manitoba government–years in the making–was just released, outlining a collaborative approach to protect one of the largest intact watersheds left on the planet. 🙌

What a truly historic moment as this proposed Indigenous Protected Area takes another huge step towards permanently protecting the globally important Seal River Watershed!

We don’t own the land. The land owns us.

Together with the Dënesųłiné, the Ininew, and our federal partners, we’re protecting the Seal River Watershed — one of the last intact ecosystems on Earth — through a nation-to-nation-to-nation approach.

Today, that means a $4 million endowment to protect these lands and waters for generations.

Because in Manitoba, growing our economy and protecting our environment go hand in hand.

Notice that little warbler with the streaked breast and constant tail bobbing? It’s the Northern Waterthrush, one of the unique birds that depends on the Boreal Forest. #borealbirds see more on this FB post with @Borealconserve

Happy to see Canada’s financial commitment to advance the Seal River Watershed Indigenous Protected Area in Manitoba & the Wiinipaakw Indigenous Protected Area and National Marine Conservation Area in Eastern James Bay as part of their new nature strategy! https://t.co/OR4DgjkZlO

🦆 The Bufflehead (with a rounded “buffalo” head) routinely dives 10–20+ feet for insects and crustaceans!

Requiring clean water & ancient forests, when you see a bufflehead, you know the ecosystem is still healthy.

Watch the 1st episode of Birds on the Move, a new documentary series spotlighting birds and the people working to protect them. This episode starts us off in the #BorealForest where we learn of the work of Indigenous organizations in Manitoba & Ontario. https://t.co/bnX3yl4296

In case you haven't heard, the Seal River Watershed IPCA will still welcome visitors onto the land to hunt, fish, and enjoy nature in a respectful way once it is established. https://t.co/4ZBhmI5X2X

[Audubon's Canada Program @AudubonCAN]

What a great interview about the amazing Indigenous-led conservation work happening to protect the Seal River Watershed in northern Manitoba, a place #Borealbirds, caribou, and many other wildlife call home. https://t.co/dbHYlfwmrs
