VOICES OF THE BOREAL FOREST

 

Join Ontario Nature and the Toronto Field Naturalists to celebrate
spring migration and take action to protect the boreal forest

 

Recent evidence estimates that 300 species and 2 BILLION individual
birds breed in the boreal forest before migrating south.  The boreal
forest is recognized as THE single most important breeding ground for
birds in North America.  

 

Join Ontario Nature and the Toronto Field Naturalists for a fun and
inspiring multimedia experience about the BILLIONS of songbirds that
breed in the majestic boreal forest.  You will hear about the threats
their breeding grounds face, as well as the tremendous conservation
opportunity to protect this special place and what you can do to help!
