Happy Halloween, Williams lake!
The Williams Lake Conservation Company has recently begun working with Love Your Lake, “…a shoreline evaluation program developed by Watersheds Canada and the Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF), and conducted for any shoreline community across the country by local organizations.”
The Williams Lake Conservation Company (WLCC), the Urban Farm Museum Society of Spryfield (UFMSS) and the Backlands Coalition are working together on a new project named “Sparrows Hawks & Doves.” Come to the Urban Farm to join in celebrating the project and help raise awareness of our birds.
Our 2021 annual Newsletter is now available! It includes updates on the dam & water level issues, land rezoning that would affect the watershed, and an invitation for members and volunteers.
If you regularly visit a Canadian lake, you too can be a Citizen Scientist. Canadian Lakes Loon Survey participants have worked since 1981 to track Common Loon breeding by monitoring chick hatch and survival. Participants dedicate at least three days, visiting their lake once in June (to see if loon pairs are on territory), once in July (to see if chicks hatch), and once in August (to see if chicks survive long enough to fledge).
