Description: Join the Nature Trust of New Brunswick as we celebrate Valentine’s Day by taking part in the annual Great Backyard Bird Count! Together, we’ll spend the morning surveying our beloved Hyla Park Nature Preserve, taking note of all the feathered friends we see and hear along the trails.
Your participation in this bird count will help us track changes and environmental shifts in bird populations at Hyla over time, providing valuable data to measure ecosystem health and guide future stewardship actions on our nature preserves!
All are welcome—whether you’re an experienced birder or just looking to learn and enjoy a day outside! Let’s show love to our feathered friends and see what we can discover, together.
