Hello,

Here is an opportunity to volunteer to do some hands-on work on a
conservation property. If you have a canoe and would like to volunteer a
day of your time to help the Nature Conservancy of Canada to survey for
Common Loons, please see below!

The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is hosting a Conservation
Volunteer event on Saturday, June 28.  The "Call of the Loon" event is a
canoe loon survey on a NCC property near Brookfield (approx. 15 km south
of Truro).  We will be following the Canadian Lakes Loon Survey
protocols from Bird Studies Canada (BSC), and a BSC loon expert will be
on hand to talk about loons, threats to them and the importance of the
survey, as we canoe these lakes looking and listening for loons.  If
interested, please check out our Conservation Volunteers website
(www.conservationvolunteers.ca) where you can register online, or call
me toll free at 1-877-231-4400.  When you register you will receive more
detailed information about the event, property, directions, maps, etc.
closer to the event date.  You are encouraged to bring your own canoe
and associated gear, but we will also be renting canoes if needed.
