Fall migration is on at FortWhyte Alive 🦆 Geese and pelicans are staging on the lakes before heading south, and the bison herd is out on the tall-grass prairie. One of Winnipeg's best places to meet nature, minutes from downtown. #Winnipeg #FortWhyteAlive #Manitoba

Summer in the city = Assiniboine Park days 🌳 Leo Mol sculptures, the English Garden, and those giant elms feel like a secret escape in Winnipeg's heart. Then FortWhyte Alive for bison, boardwalks, and prairie sunsets 🦬 Just 15 minutes from downtown! #Winnipeg #AssiniboinePark #FortWhyteAlive

"If there's anything cooler than this, I'm going to be surprised!"

Those words came from some of the 1,000 Winnipeg students who came together at @FortWhyteAlive on both June 23rd and June 24th.

But this was not just any other field trip.

One needs to be early to spot the eagle watching for a fish to catch for breakfast.

Clear as a mirror
The lake at Fort Whyte
Reflected the clouds
And the sailboats
And any bird flying above
Disturbed only when fish jumped up
Through the clouds

Lower Fort Garry and Oak Hammock Marsh come to mind, if you have wheels. Otherwise maybe FortWhyteAlive?

It was a special moment at Fort Whyte Alive this morning as Buffalo Crossing was opened. It is now the most energy efficient building in Manitoba and will serve as an important gathering place for education and environmental sustainability in our city.

I had an idea @FortWhyteAlive, & @assiniboinepark, offer a fleet of these cargo bikes that can fit 2-4 kiddos or loads of picnic supplies for all those visitors that would like to go further into the parks in a day.
