On May 14, 2022, the Friends of the Porcupine River Watershed celebrated World Migratory Bird Day by hosting a guided bird walk at Porcupine Lake. Participants walked the Prospector trail with their binoculars to watch and listen to various migrating birds. From waterfowl feeding on the lake, Savannah Sparrows singing in tall grass and shrubs, and various colourful migrating warblers singing in mixed forest; the group got to experience the variety of habitat that Porcupine Lake offers to migrating and resident birds. Overall, the group counted 37 species in two hours and the list was submitted to eBird, a worldwide database of bird observations. In the past decade, 193 different species of birds were observed and documented at Porcupine Lake, making it a prime location for local bird enthusiasts.
When you flush your stuff, it flows into a network of sewage pipes that lead to a sewage treatment plant where it is cleaned and treated before the remaining water is dumped into the ocean.
Change starts with action. Better yet, an action that affects the world around you. A Billion Acts of Green are happening across the planet.
Inspired by the many Indigenous-led movements across North America, We Are Water Protectors issues an urgent rallying cry to safeguard the Earth’s water from harm and corruption.
Clean water is essential for our health and the environment. The way we use it, pollution and climate change are affecting this precious resource.
