!) New rule in effect. I will be checking registrants name and profile photo to ensure they can be traced. A proper profile includes a recognizable first name and a clearly identifiable photo (without the need of magnification).
You are invited to a walk at the west end of the city. Prepare to arrive on time, as we try to start the walk on time. Please dress appropariate to the weather and temperature, and bring cleats and hiking pole. You may or may not need it, but it is always good to have them in the car. We will begin with an introduction and welcome exercise, and then we will relax and enjoy our time in nature.

9. Description
Shirleys Bay is part of a series of wetlands and uplands, and is one of the Ottawa Valley’s most diverse and undeveloped wild areas. This provincial class one wetland supports a variety of plants and animals, some of which are rare and regionally significant. The wetlands help maintain the water quality, and control the flow of the Ottawa River. Shirleys Bay is on an important bird migration route along the Ottawa River. More than 270 bird species have been seen in the Shirleys Bay area over the years.
