Meet in the parking lot beside the baseball field at the Fletcher Wildlife Garden on the east side of Prince of Wales Drive. We will visit several of the habitats labelled on the photo (see link to habitat areas below).
To get to Fletcher Wildlife Garden: From Dow's Lake, take Prince of Wales Drive south past the traffic circle. The entrance to the Fletcher Wildlife Garden is north of Baseline Rd. and is marked with a sign showing their heron logo. Bus route 85 stops at Carling and Preston, near Dows Lake; from there, it’s a 20-minute walk to the garden. Detailed directions to the Fletcher Wildlife Garden by car or by public transportation can be found on their website.
