Living with Nature
A Private Nature Preserve.
The Mirror House disappears so the wildlife can appear. Here is who you might meet.
For the Birdwatchers
A wildlife gallery, framed by glass.
Great Blue Heron
Standing perfectly still in the tall grass at the water's edge.
Blue Jay
A flash of brilliant blue darting between the pine boughs.
Pileated Woodpecker
The large red-crested variety — you'll likely hear them before you see them.
Prothonotary Warbler
Bright yellow 'swamp candles' — a guest favourite in spring and summer.
Lakeside Neighbours
Quiet residents of the canal.
Painted Turtles
Look for turtles sunning themselves on fallen logs along the canal — they are the property's gentlest neighbours.
Respecting the Wild
A peaceful co-existence.
Observe, don't feed
To keep our wildlife wild and healthy, please do not feed any animals.
Secure your trash
Always ensure the outdoor bin lid is tightly closed to discourage curious nocturnal visitors.
Stay on the paths
You may encounter local insects or sun-loving reptiles. Designated decks and paths ensure peaceful co-existence.
