Iroquoia Annual Meeting The NewsleTTer of The IroquoIa Bruce TraIl cluB Summer 2011 Vol. 46 No. 2 The Iroquoianwww.iroquoia.on.ca Hello nature lovers, hikers and walkers! Group leaders are needed! What: 15th annual Earth Day Eco-Festival When: May 18, 19, 20, 2011 Are you interested in passing your love of the outdoors down to a new generation? For the 5th year our Eco- festival is offering guided nature walks for grade 4, 5, and 6 classes that attend our event. These hikes are the highlight of the day for students attending our Eco-festival, which consists of scheduled sessions of workshops, exhibits and our guided nature hikes. The Hamilton - Burlington Earth Day Eco-Festival is dedicated to providing area youth with the inspiration, innovation, activities and information to set these students out on the path to a green life. It also gives them the opportunity to experience nature first hand in the outdoors. www.earthdayhamilton.ca Details: Volunteer group leaders will do a series of 3 walks in a day, which are about 60 minutes each (depending on the trail). For each walk you will guide a class of 30 students accompanied by their teacher, an Eco-festival volunteer, and several parent chaperones, who will help with crowd control. Along your trail you can point out wildlife, geographic formations, or whatever interests you. Each leader will receive a mini-guide and map. It is a rewarding day when you see the excitement in the children when they experience the natural world. Expectations: You will go on one or two Orientation walks. The annual terrain is easy and trails are well maintained. You will be given Iroquoia suggestions for remarks you can make along the route and a map. meeting If you have volunteered with us before you may not need to do the Orientation hike(s). he club’s annual meeting was held Sat- Location: Royal Botanical Gardens trails, both out of the Main urday, April 16 at the Anglican Church Centre on Plains Road West (Hendrie Valley) and out of the camp “Canterbury Hills’ in the beautiful Nature Interpretive Centre (North Shore of Cootes Paradise).

  • January 2018 Happy New Year !
    JOURNAL OF THE HAMILTON NATURALISTS’ CLUB Protecting Nature Since 1919 Volume 71 Number 5 January 2018 Happy New Year ! Immature Northern Gannet at Van Wagners Beach on 8 December 2017. This species certainly makes for an exciting day when one gets lucky and sees one at the west end of Lake Ontario or even on the Harbour. Richard Poort was in the right place when he took this fine photo. Characteristics of the plumage here almost make it look somewhat loon-like making one wonder if there is a close kinship between the two groups. However, gannets and boobies are not closely related to loons and any similarity is at best coincidence.
