October 23, 2019: Peter Candido
Dinosaurs in My Garden
Dinosaurs didn’t go extinct – birds are their direct descendants! Numbering about 10,500 species, birds are the most diverse group of vertebrates on earth. Residents of the Lower Mainland/Metro Vancouver Area are fortunate to be living in one of the most biodiverse areas in Canada. The Fraser River Estuary is designated as a Ramsar site, a wetland area of international importance under the Ramsar Convention, an environmental treaty established by UNESCO. Boundary Bay, Roberts Bank and Sturgeon Bank are recognized as the top three of 597 Important Bird Areas by BirdLife International. The forests, fields and gardens of the Metro Vancouver area are also home to a large variety of fascinating bird species. This talk will introduce you to some of the common bird species found in the Metro Vancouver area and explore some of the amazing abilities of birds.
