(across from Dominion Gardens) On Sunday, July 19, from 12:30- 3:30 p.m. visit Willow Park Ecol- ogy Centre (WPEC) to discover this beautiful nature park located within the Hungry Hollow Ravine system along Silver Creek. Wildlife habitats have been ex- tensively restored, and are main- tained, through community en- gagement. We have successfully created opportunities for small mammals, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and diverse insect popula- tions to find food and shelter. Did you know that we have tur- tles, a variety of frogs and snakes, and river otters in Willow Park? In fact, a "species of special con- cern" has been sighted successful- ly nesting. Good news for humans reducing the Ontario Species at Risk. You too can learn to find signs of local wildlife and how to enhance their habitat. Special activities include Recognizing Pollinators Workshop, Water Habitats Discov- ery, Woodlands Species Adventure and Creative Handicrafts. Please register for the Wildlife Day event at http://www.willow- parkecology.ca/registration.html and bring $5 per person or $15 for a family of four. Parking is off Mary Street, Nor- val. Bring your camera to capture plants, animals, insects and birds! To help inventory the Centre's in- habitants and share with others our findings, send your best shots or an email of what you saw (any- time throughout the year) to wild- life@wpec.ca. The Centre's Special Events Program runs throughout the year. Our next event, Art-in-the-Park will be on Sunday, August 16, from noon-4 p.m. To inquire about Park Programs for recreation or education for spe- cial group or family needs email wpec@willowparkecology.ca.
