#DYK Nahanni National Park has one of North America’s most amazing waterfalls? Virginia Falls in the park is twice as tall as Niagara Falls!

Also, Flat River & South Nahanni River, older than the surrounding mountains, have carved some of the world's most stunning river canyons.

#DYK : Bumblebees take power naps! These busy buzzers work tirelessly during the day, flitting from flower to flower in search of nectar. But, when they get tired, they aren't afraid to hit the snooze button. You can observe them taking a siesta on a leaf or inside a flower! 🐝

Carcross Desert KBA stands out as drier than its surroundings partly because nearby mountains cast a rain shadow ☔️

These conditions allow rare plants like the Baikal Sedge to grow. Baikal sedge is found in only four other spots in North America 🌱 #30DaysofKBAs

Apart from providing critical habitat for birds, this #KBA also serves as a migration route for Atlantic Salmon, travelling upstream to spawn.

Estuarine portions of this site have been designated as critical habitat for this species 🐟 #30DaysofKBAs

Witless Bay Islands KBA, with Gull, Green, Great & Pee Pee Islands, is a bird haven✨

It hosts North America’s largest Atlantic Puffin colony and the world’s second-largest Leach’s Storm-petrel colony, along with thousands of Black-legged Kittiwakes & Common Murres #30DaysofKBAs

#DYK : The ghost pipe, also called the ghost plant or corpse plant, is a perennial wildflower that gets its name from its shape and its pure, pale white colour. Unlike most other plants, this species does not produce chlorophyll, as a result, it is completely white!

Le monotrope uniflore, également connu sous le nom de plante fantôme, est une fleur sauvage vivace qui doit son nom à sa forme et à sa blancheur pure et pâle. Contrairement à la plupart des autres plantes, elle ne produit pas de chlorophylle et est donc complètement blanche! 👻

Saviez-vous que l'opossum était un animal « nettoyeur » et un allié de la nature? En effet, il se nourrit des fruits trop mûrs tombés au sol, recycle les matières organiques, assure le contrôle de parasites et favorise la biodiversité!

Did you know opossums are a vital member of nature’s cleanup crew? They play a crucial role in cleaning up the debris left behind by other animals. They consume overripe fruits that have fallen to the ground, recycle organic matter, control pests, and promote biodiversity!

Un grand merci à la Canada Vie! Votre soutien a contribué à faire de notre événement #IciOnParleNature un immense succès!🎉
