This past summer C**T partnered with in hiring summer students to assist with monitoring and maintenance on C**T properties & conservation covenant areas. This was a first for C**T, as traditionally this work would have been undertaken (on a smaller scale) by our wonderful volunteers. These hardworking students removed roughly 755kg of invasive weeds from 6 different properties, including Johns Family Nature Conservancy Regional Park, Thomson Marsh, and Munson Pond.

Green herons are a tiny species of heron, dwarfed by our resident Great blues, and very rare visitors to the Okanagan. For the past week birders have enjoyed viewing this individual at Munson Pond.

Did you know Green herons are one of the few birds that use tools for hunting? This clip captures their special technique!

C**T was instrumental in the renaturalization of what is now Munson Pond, and holds a conservation covenant on the southern portion of the park.

Thanks .okanagan for capturing this video of the green heron in action!
