l have been a part of a few successful wildlife rescues and educate people on wildlife and environmental issues. We have helped in issues to save wetlands, woodlands etc.to save the precious life within. It is well worth the effort. We can all learn to live and work together. Education is the key. In 2011 I won an education award from Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority for the work and photography I do. Habitat is fast disappearing and with it, many species are also declining in numbers. So many species can actually tell us the health of our environment and alert us to problems we need to know about. They all need to be protected.

Attempted loon rescue,Nov,28th

Kempenfelt Bay,Barrie,every year it happens. We spot a loon or 2 in distress. Fishing line is mostly the culprit.Toronto Wildlife rescue team came up on the 28th and gave it their best shot with this loon. I of 2. It has been beaching itself which is not a good sign. Loons do not do well on land. I was there with my sister daily checking on the birds. And it seemed week. But can still dive as we found out. We will keep trying. My thanks go out to Toronto Wildlife Center and Andrew and Alex for all their help and support. Dan,Mark and Wayne for their help and supplying the boat and motor. Lets keep our fishing line safely out of harms way for those who fish. It is dangerous and causes loss of life every year. And for all of us. If you see fishing line lying around,pick it up. You may be saving a life or lives. Not on the loons wings near her body. Looking very sore and open.
