September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Rec

September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

We encourage our staff, volunteers and supporters to respectfully reflect on the history experienced by Indigenous Peoples in Canada, to learn more about the culture of Indigenous Peoples and to engage in meaningful conversations on reconciliation.

As an organization dedicated to wetland conservation and the protection of natural habitats, we understand the interconnectedness of all life on this planet—and we acknowledge that our natural resources are inseparable from the cultures of Indigenous Peoples, who have stewarded this land since time immemorial.

Our offices will be closed on Monday, October 2 in observance of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Do you know what a heronry is? It's where a group

Do you know what a heronry is? It's where a group of breeding herons gather!

The great blue heron—which can be found in saltwater and freshwater habitats, from open coasts, marshes, sloughs, riverbanks, and lakes to backyard ponds—is an example of a species that will gather in a heronry. It can also be found foraging in grasslands and agricultural fields, and is consistent throughout most of North America, ranging as far north as Alaska and the southern Canadian provinces in the summer.

In winter, the great blue heron's range extends south through Florida, Mexico, and the Caribbean to South America. Birds in the northernmost part of their range are migratory and winter along the coastline of the southern United States.

Canada's wetlands protect us from floods, drought

Canada's wetlands protect us from floods, drought and the growing impacts of climate change; provide habitat for diverse wildlife; and clean our water. They also give us natural places to play, learn and explore—but they need our help! 🦆

➡️ We're challenging people across the country to lace up for Duck and Run to raise funds and awareness for these threatened ecosystems. As a thank you, our sponsors @bassproshops and @cabelascanada are rewarding the top fundraisers at each Duck and Run race, including the virtual run! 👏

For your chance to win, register for a Duck and Run near you at the link in our bio! 🎉

Canoeing for conservation 🌱🛶 We're celebrat

Canoeing for conservation 🌱🛶

We're celebrating 85 years of Ducks Unlimited Canada—and DUC President Roger d’Eschambault is marking the occasion by canoeing through some of Manitoba’s most storied wetlands to raise awareness and funds for wetland conservation.

Paddling his way through the very places where DUC began, Roger wants people to know ➡️ "There’s never been a more important time for conservation leadership and action. Climate change, biodiversity loss and the need for nature-based solutions that balance the needs of our economy and environment demand our attention. Conservation matters now, more than ever."

When we work together, we are unlimited in what we can accomplish. Make a donation to save our water, our wildlife and our natural environment through the link in our bio.

Did you know that the bufflehead is a close relati

Did you know that the bufflehead is a close relative of the common goldeneye—making its nests in tree cavities close to water? It gets its name from the male’s distinct and puffy head shape, which resembles that of a buffalo.

During spring and summer, they can be found across western Canada, and as far north as Alaska. Their wintering grounds include the west and south of the United States and the northernmost parts of Mexico.

Canada is often the envy of other countries becaus

Canada is often the envy of other countries because we have an abundance of wild places and wild species to connect with. 🌲💧🦆

Wetlands are powerful ecosystems that shelter more than 550 species of wildlife. They also give us natural places to play, learn and explore. Despite this, in settled areas of Canada, up to 70% of our wetlands have been destroyed or degraded. As they continue to disappear, so too do the many benefits they provide.

Help protect our favourite outdoor getaways and secure the future for wildlife. 👉 Register for a Duck and Run in a community near you at the link in our bio!

The 2023 Duck and Run is proudly sponsored by @bassproshops and @cabelascanada.

The northern pintail is a beautiful dabbling duck

The northern pintail is a beautiful dabbling duck that can be found in shallow, fast-warming seasonal or permanent wetlands and prairie habitat—but they aren't restricted to North America. In fact, the northern pintail ranges over more of the Earth than any other waterfowl! 🦆🌎

In North America, pintails breed from Alaska and the Canadian Arctic, south to the Prairie Pothole Region of southern Canada, and the northern Great Plains of the United States.

In winter, pintails can be found along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts from southeastern Alaska and southeastern Massachusetts, south to Mexico and Central America.

It's officially fall and we're welcoming the season with our first #DUCMigrationTracker featured observation! 🍂🦆

Spotted by @inaturalistorg user critterpedia, this common merganser was observed in Kelowna, B.C.

➡️ Did you know that different duck species have special adaptations to help them eat their preferred foods? Common mergansers have narrow saw-like bills to eat their favourite food...fish!

If you want the chance to be featured, join our DUC Migration Tracker project on iNaturalist. Head to the link in our bio to get started today!
