MFNC AGM: The Nature of Canada: a Naturalists’ Journey across this Great Country
Twenty fast-acting people can be part of a special audience for a brand new Michael Runtz nature talk based on the diverse habitats and wildlife he encountered on a recent cross-Canada road trip.
On December 3, 2019, members of the Macnamara Field Naturalists’ Club (MFNC) will hold their Annual General Meeting at the Arnprior Curling Club; after the business part of the meeting, which will run from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Runtz—a founding member and club president — will do a special presentation on The Nature of Canada: A Naturalist’s Journey across this Great Country.
From Badgers and Bighorn Sheep to Sea Otters and Steller Sea Lions, Michael’s cross-Canada road trip provided myriad encounters with wildlife in many different ecological settings ranging from prairie and mountain peaks to tidal pools and oceanic islands.
His highly visual presentation will be an overview of the rich diversity of habitats and wildlife encountered on this remarkable journey.
