Happy #WorldPhotographyDay! Nothing makes me happier than being in nature with my camera. 📸💚 #wildlifephotography #birds #mammals #wildlife
When we protect the boreal forest, we’re protecting so much more than a piece of land. Through Kabenung Lakes and Forests, we conserved more than 8,100 hectares in northern Ontario, and we’re not done yet! Discover four reasons why protecting the boreal forest really matters.
There's hope for one of Canada's rarest butterflies. This year, 199 endangered Poweshiek skipperlings were released into Manitoba's Tall Grass Prairie Preserve, and surveys recorded the highest numbers seen to date! Learn more: natureconservancy.ca/assiniboine-...

I love watching these common wall lizards in my garden, but they are invasive in BC and outcompete native #wildlife. 🦎 Here’s how you can stop their spread: - Check cars/boats/equipment for hitchhikers - Inspect soil/potted plants - Log sightings on the BC Invasive Species app #photography

Dinner party at the lagoon! 🕺🐟 🪶 Great blue herons fly into the lagoon to hunt as the tide rolls in, pushing fish and other critters into shallower water. A few of them got territorial, chasing each other off and showing some real aggression over the best fishing spots. Such a sight to see.
Every spring, billions of songbirds journey to Canada to raise their families, and your backyard could be the perfect place to land. With this Small Act of Conservation, you can help feathered travellers rest, refuel and get nest-ready. Find out how: secure.natureconservancy.ca/site/SPageSe...

Canada has 25% of the world’s wetlands, so protecting places like Marlborough Wetland in Ontario matters. It means safeguarding habitat for species at risk and creating landscapes that are resilient against climate change. natureconservancy.ca/ottawa-wetla...
A new Canadian Geographic story follows a bear crossing B.C.’s Columbia Valley, moving between conservation areas managed by multiple organizations, including NCC. It shows what we know: lasting conservation impact depends on collaboration across landscapes. canadiangeographic.ca/articles/koo...

This morning we caught the sunrise at Esquimalt Lagoon and spent some quiet time watching what the morning brought: #birds moving through the water, a harbour seal surfacing now and then, and golden light settling over the lagoon. ♡
2025 was a year of big wins for nature and NCC. Thanks to our donors, supporters, partners, volunteers, and staff, we proved what’s possible when we act together for nature. And if we can do this... just imagine what comes next.
Conservation at scale can’t happen without collaboration. That’s what makes Kootenay Forest Lands truly special. Today, we joined governments, Indigenous partners and industry to celebrate what’s possible when we work together for nature. Learn more: natureconservancy.ca/kootenay-lan...
The more natural areas you protect, the more you let nature do what it does best: store carbon, clean our water, nurture our well-being and restore the ecosystems our planet urgently needs. Give now and make 2X the impact: brnw.ch/21wXjau #GivingTuesday
