The rain stopped and the sun shone this past Saturday for Le Nichoir’s first Festival of Birds and Nature. Throughout the event, visitors met with representatives from organizations working locally and nationally for the conservation of wildlife and the environment. The event was a success thanks to all the organizations who participated, those who visited and our sponsors.

The mini-seminars covering a variety of subjects were popular and the bird-watching walks led by the Club ornithologique Vaudreuil-Soulanges, Bird Protection Quebec and Joël Coutu were all well attended.
