Upcoming Events
There are lots of great things happening in Calgary for bird and nature lovers. See below for some upcoming events and how to get involved!
May Plant Count: May 28
For the past several years the Weaselhead/Glenmore Park Preservation Society has been taking part in the May Flower Count, documenting which flowers are blooming this time of year and the changes we see from year to year.
No experience necessary! Just bring your observations skills, and a camera/iPhone if possible.
Can't join us on the day? We still encourage you to head out on your own through the Weaselhead May 25-31 and make a list or snap a picture of any plant/shrub you see flowering and contribute to the data collection! No need to identify the plant if you are unsure. Just upload all your sightings to iNaturalist and the experts will identify for you.
