Birds of a Feather: Winter Wings

Nature House 712 Lost Lagoon Path, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Each fall and winter, thousands of birds arrive here from northern or interior summer ranges. Filling our waters, forests, and skies with vibrant feathers and fun calls and quacks, the cold season birds are always a pleasure to witness and get to know. Join local birder Kim for a relaxed interpretive outing, with the pace set by participants and tailored to the group's speed. No experience required, just bring your curiosity!

Family Forest Field Trip

Stanley Park Rose Garden Vancouver, BC, Canada

Looking for a family event to spend time in nature this weekend? Come along to our Family Forest Field Trip nature walk, where we'll explore the forest ecosystem and learn about the plants and animals who live there. Join us as we engage our senses and listen for the calls of nearby birds, feel the textures of the forest, and use magnifiers to get an up-close look at the hidden life around us. 

The Hidden Web: Mycelial Networks and Forest Connections

Nature House 712 Lost Lagoon Path, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Every second of every day and night, countless cycles are churning around us, carried on by millions of organisms big and small. Join us to discover the intricate relationships that bind the forest ecosystem together -- from the textured lichens clinging to tree bark, to the mysterious mycelial network under the soil, to the flying squirrels who spread the spores of mushrooms as they collect and dry them in the forest!

What’s that Tree?

Stanley Park #19 Bus Loop Stanley Park Loop, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Do you find yourself wandering through the Park and wondering about the tall trees that greet you? If you’re curious about learning some beginner tree identification, join us for a relaxed outing in "Stanley Park"! We’ll learn how to recognize the late fall/early winter traits of some common forest and urban trees by taking a closer look at their bark, cones, and needles. No plant ID experience necessary!

Birds of a Feather: Winter Waterbirds

Nature House 712 Lost Lagoon Path, Vancouver, BC, Canada

This month, local birder Kris takes us on a relaxed, interpretive outing to explore seasonal and year-round feathered residents -- with a focus on the charming winter waterbirds.
