Taking place on <strong>Tuesday, May 12 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM<\/strong>, this special event offers a chance to slow down, connect with nature, and experience one of the most active times of year for local wildlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">May marks the peak of spring migration, when a wide variety of songbirds, shorebirds, and waterfowl pass through or return to the area. With the wetlands located just north of Creekside Shopping Centre, this spot provides a unique opportunity to observe wildlife in an accessible, community-oriented setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The walk will be led by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/naturecalgary.com\/\">Nature Calgary<\/a><\/strong>, a volunteer-run organization dedicated to conservation, education, and fostering appreciation for the natural world. Your guide for the morning, Bernie Diebolt, brings familiarity with the area and will help participants spot and identify birds and other wildlife along the route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The experience will begin and end at the <strong>Creekside Community Patio<\/strong>, conveniently located between Joso\u2019s Play &amp; Learn Centre and Chatters Hair Salon. From there, participants will set out on a relaxed 90-minute walk through the wetlands, suitable for all experience levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Whether you\u2019re an avid birdwatcher or simply looking to enjoy a spring morning outdoors, this is a great opportunity to explore a growing natural space within the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"pe-md-4 me-lg-2\"><strong>Advance registration is required to secure your spot.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">  \n<style>\n    .gmnoprint, .gm-style-cc {\n        display: none !important;\n    }\n<\/style>\n\n <div class=\"location-block\">\n\n         <div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile image-box flat\" id=\"overview\">\n            \n            <div id=\"map\"><\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n                <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Emplacement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n                <p><strong>12432 Symons Valley Rd NW, Calgary, AB T3P 0A3<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n                <div class=\"wp-block-buttons mt-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n                        \n                        <div class=\"wp-block-button alt\">\n                            <a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/TGAZ5ua3HzzfUeTc6\" target=\"_blank\">Google Cartes<\/a>\n                        <\/div>\n                                                        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <script>\n            window.mapAddress =  \"12432 Symons Valley Rd NW, Calgary, AB T3P 0A3\";\n    <\/script>\n    <script src=\"https:\/\/www.choicereit.ca\/wp-content\/themes\/choice-properties\/js\/map.js\"> <\/script>\n    <script src=\"https:\/\/maps.googleapis.com\/maps\/api\/js?key=AIzaSyCAPZ2wImj2Kmb8jSBTRA0fRQ2T6bUujQI&amp;callback=initMap\" async defer><\/script>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-to-register-reach-out-to-bdiebolt-gmail-com\">To register, reach out to <strong>bdiebolt@gmail.com<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":23679,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_oasis_is_in_workflow":0,"_oasis_original":0,"_oasis_task_priority":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-23678","placemaking-event","type-placemaking-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) -
