Darken the night sky & support bird migration & wildlife that are active at night with simple actions! Turn off outdoor lights when not needed (esp btw 11pm-6am during migration) Better yet use motion sensor lights that light up only when/where you need it most. #calgaryconnect #yyc

We want to take a moment to introduce ourselves to Bluesky! Our vision is that individuals, communities, and governments recognize the Weaselhead as an important natural area that connects people with nature, and work collaboratively to embrace and protect it. Learn more: theweaselhead.com

Objects in photo are closer than they appear! Did you know that black bears often visit the Weaselhead? Staying on designated trails helps give them space to survive and thrive. #CalgaryConnect #yyc #weaselheadpark @miistakis.bsky.social

Roads can be a big barrier & cause of death for wildlife moving between habitats. Weaselhead values the lengthening of the bridge on the SW Calgary Ring Road to accommodate wildlife movement, maintaining ecological connectivity on either side of the road. 📷 Cougar using the underpass #CalgaryConnect
