 Prescott-Russell Stewardship
We strongly believe that no other region in Ontario can feature such ecological jewels: a provincial significant wetland – the Alfred Bog; an innovative wetland restoration project – Atocas Bay; and a municipal lagoon which is, based on bird watchers, one of the best birding site in Canada.
Yet, at 4200 hectares, it is the biggest bog of its kind in Southern Ontario, big enough to give refuge to many plants and animals that were stranded as the warming climate pushed the boreal forest northward.
Over the past 25 years, the Alfred sewage lagoons have become the premier birding spot in Eastern Ontario and are certainly one of the most significant spots in all of Canada to view and study wildlife.
