Nature Moncton member Irene Doucet wrote up an excellent article she called
“Transported by Nature” that has been published by Bird Studies Canada. It is
beautifully done ! Check out the attached URL to read
Irene’s piece.
** The March Nature Moncton meeting is on tonight, Tuesday night, at 7 pm at the Mapleton Park Rotary Lodge across from Cabela’s with presenter Beth MacDonald on the Whimbrel as previously distributed. For those who reserved Swallow Nest Boxes and were not able to get to the Saturday workshop, they can be picked up from the tailgate of a grey Ford F-150 at the start of the meeting. Make sure I know the number on the boxes to put it with the owner’s name to maintain success records.
** Our family paid a visit to Resurgo Place at 20 Mountain Rd
in Moncton recently, the rebuilt and renamed Moncton Museum. For those who have
not visited this spot, I cannot recommend it highly enough. The exhibits are
extremely well done, and is captivating for children as it is for adults. Some
exhibits are particularly designed for children of all ages and are blended in
with exhibits that will be very revealing and interesting to adults and younger
people alike. The staff are extremely well trained to explain more on the
exhibits. If you have not visited Resurgo Place, put it on your list. The
advertisement for Resurgo Place has been very underwhelming. I hope that
changes so that more people realize that it’s there.
