Bird populations have dropped significantly since 1970 with Canada & U.S. losing a net 2.9 billion. @NCC_CNC feels habitat conservation can help sustain populations and help them recover. More in this story by @SH_BordenColley with @CBCNS https://t.co/hxrWYtNeX2 #nature#cdnpoli
Thank you @NCC_CNC for a wonderful summer at Johnson's Mills shorebird reserve on the #BayOfFundy! It has been a great summer for 4 interns who are now headed back to school. See you soon peeps!
A big thank you to the Government of Canada, New Brunswick Environmental Trust Fund, New Brunswick Wildlife Trust Fund, PEI Wildlife Conservation Fund, and many other donors for supporting our intern programs.
Thank you to our NS & NB interns for helping care for our many nature reserves by assessing habitats & monitoring the species found there. They also help educate visitors at Johnson’s Mills Shorebird Interpretive Centre. #NCCinterns#FacesOfNCC
Have you seen those cute little #shorebirds on the beach lately? They've dropped by (from the Arctic) to fuel-up on their way to South America, non-stop. They need rest and time to eat; please don't disturb them. @NatureCanada@NatureNB @BSC_Atlantic
