The Nature Manitoba Salzmann Songbird Grant has been established to provide funds for projects and activities in Manitoba which support the conservation and/or management of native songbirds, or education on the value of native songbirds, including measures to reduce mortality, increase nesting success, etc.

Bridging the Gap is a unique non-formal educational program that seeks to bring together Indigenous and western ways of knowing for children living in an urban context. The program is run by Nature Manitoba in partnership with educators and other learning organizations.

The Delta Marsh Bird Observatory set up at the Oak Hammock Marsh Wildlife Management Area again this year.

Highlights included:

Many of us garden to enjoy the foods or fruits of our labours, and to have beautiful blooms to admire that attract pollinators.  But the Living Prairie Museum’s native plant plots are designed with one purpose in mind - to go to seed! 

Begun several years ago, on a previously disturbed site along the northeastern edge of the Living Prairie Museum (LPM), the project was completed this fall.  Thirty-seven species of native tall grass prairie wildflowers (or forbs) have been planted and many seeds have already been harvested.
