©2006 Boreal Centre for Bird Conservation

Ever wonder how a tiny songbird weighing less than 10 grams makes the trip from Lesser Slave Lake to South America (and back again) each year? How do they know where to go when no one's stopping for directions? Think they must have a good travel agent or are just using up frequent flyer miles?

What do they have to sing about? Is it a secret attempt to become the next Canadian Idol?

And what on earth are the researchers doing putting little bracelets on their legs?

Ah, the mysteries hidden within the boreal forest.

The Boreal Centre for Bird Conservation provides a variety of interpretive and educational events, as well as environmental education school programs, which explore these and other intriguing questions.

Interpretive and Education Events
From birds to bears to boreal we've got something for the whole family. Check out our Environmental Education Programs.

Environmental Education
We provide environmental education programs for school groups, either in the classroom or on location at the BCBC. All program bookings include a pre- and post-trip activities package and teacher's guide.  Programs are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
