It was a busy National Wildlife Week at Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary in Kingsville, April 7-14.
The event wrapped up on the weekend with over 16 artists inside the Sanctuary and 20 vendors outside, children’s educational demos, archery lessons, Canadian Raptor Conservancy demonstrations, museum tours, guest speakers and more.
On Wednesday, April 10, birthday treats were served to commemorate what would have been Jack Miner’s 159th birthday.
Miner, known as the father of North American conservation, died in 1944 at the age of 79.
The foundation was established in Canada in 1936 and operates solely on grants and private corporate donations.
