We love our pond dips, especially to appreciate aquatic biodiversity!

Yesterday was the International Day of Biodiversity. 🌎 With biodiversity being key to sustainable development, it's a good time to review how we are contributing to global efforts for nature.

Finding one's feet amidst these global efforts can be challenging! We highly recommend watching "The State of the World" by Dr. Simon Stuart for a bigger picture of the environmental and societal crises we face today. Biodiversity is so interlinked with the world's problems, that it is both a solution to and a casualty of other issues. Watch the video and our summary at the 🔗 in bio.

By now, you've probably heard about #NoMowMay (check out our earlier post!). If you've left the mower in the garage, you've given pollinators some food and sanctuary this spring!

While this is an excellent start to creating habitat for our pollinators, we can take the next step. The @ncc_cnc says: "We need to do more than just not mowing – first and foremost: planting native. There is a lot of nuance to what is native from one province to another. I always recommend going to your local nursery or googling the local native plant groups in your area and plant those.” (article at link in bio)

What advice can you give people in your area on pollinator-friendly plants to grow this season? 🌼

We’ve been having so much fun at our Spring Day Camps at the A Rocha BC Centre this season! So many smiles as these kiddos reflect on their week outside, learning about nature and where their food comes from 🥕🥦☀️

Check out our website for Summer Day Camp info and registration!

What birds did you see or hear during #JohnStottBirding Day and @WorldMigratoryBirdDay this past weekend? Any new or uncommon visitors in your area? 🐦🦉🦆

At our centres, some of our favourite migrants to welcome each year are the Rufous Hummingbird* in BC, the Sandhill Crane in MB, and the Tree Swallow in ON.

If you made an eBird list or took photos during the weekend, submit them by May 20 to join the contest! Find more details here 👇

*This was a pretty male hummer from a few years ago. Please avoid using bird feeders at this time due to the avian flu (HPAI) outbreak!

Recently, the Northern BC team travelled to Brooksdale Environmental Centre, the @arochacanada flagship project near Surrey, BC. Stops along the way included the sturgeon hatchery in Vanderhoof and the Scout Island Nature Centre in Williams Lake. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
While staying at Brooksdale, the team experienced forest walks, environmental education programs, admin training, dinner with the interns, snail surveys, crab trapping, birding, chapel time and the White Rock Pier. It was a blessing to spend the time together and to learn more about A Rocha Canada.⁣⁣

For #FeatheredFriday, "like" if birds bring colour to your life! 🪶 Have you heard that even the sound of birds improves people's mental health? Researchers found that hikers experienced a greater sense of well-being on trails with bird song than without.

Get out to the avian soundscape this weekend for #JohnStottBirding Day and @worldmigratorybirdday! 🐦🦉🦆

It’s that time of year! Our Conservation Science

It’s that time of year! Our Conservation Science team at the BC A Rocha Centre have been surveying the TATALU (Little Campbell) estuary for the invasive European Green Crab 🦀🌊

It’s important to monitor the situation as this invasive species colonizes nearby areas. Though they haven’t yet been spotted in our traps, we’re keeping an eye out!
