Be for the birds

Every year, billions of songbirds make the journey to Canada for one simple reason: the explosion of life that happens in our northern spring makes it a great place to raise a family.

How you can help

Support migratory birds along their journey by creating pit stops on your property.

1. Plant clusters of native shrubs or trees to provide habitat for birds.

2. Build a bird feeder.

3. Contribute to citizen science by using eBird (app) to record your observations of migratory birds that visit your property.

4. Share on social media how you’re helping to do your part for birds using #MySmallAct.

Small acts on a big scale

Across Canada, NCC staff inventory the plants and animals on our properties and remove any invasive species, along with the help of our Conservation Volunteers. By doing so, we're improving habitats for native plants and animals.
