EXPLORE NATURE IN THE BAY OF QUINTE REGION !
Photo by Gilles Bisson of BellevilleIn this section, we look at all things natural  around the Bay of Quinte region. These will include conservation areas, nature reserves, provincial parks, trails, national wildlife areas and others in our region. Many of these include special areas where we have conducted some of our guided hikes over the years. These natural areas are very special as most have been set aside to preserve the habitat and flora and fauna, as well as the human history. We are very fortunate to have these great areas in our midst, in an era when the importance of preserving remnants of the Quinte area’s natural habitat has never been more important. 
PHOTO DESCRIPTION: Each winter, we look forward to the arrival of winter finches that move into the Quinte area when wild food crops crash in their boreal nesting habitats. This is one of them – a lovely male Pine Grosbeak.
