Wye Marsh for the Birders!

On our way up North to Parry Sound, we visited Wye Marsh. This Wildlife centre is located on 3000 acres of wetlands, fen and forest in Midland. Wetlands are one of the most divere ecosystems in the world. There are fourteen species at risk that call Why Marsh their home so this ecological jewel needs to be conserved at all costs!



Our hike starts with a beautiful forest and a Spring-green collection of fresh Ferns. Alomng our way we've met the Trumpeter Swan (Cygnus buccinator). This large swan has been succesfully reintroduced in Wye Marsh in the early nineties.

Tree Swallow (Tachycineta bicolor)

Yellow Warbler (Dendroica petechia)

Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater)

En jullie kennen natuurlijk allemaal het Forget-Me-Notje! Wij noemen het hier op onze trip: We-Do-Not-Forget-Youtjes. Coming up ladies and gentlemen: beautiful people in Rosseau, Thurber enjoys his stay in Parry Sound, On the water in Georgian Bay and Black Gardens goes International!
