Tatlayoko Lake Bird Observatory
Located in the remote and beautiful Tatlayoko Valley, the Tatlayoko Lake Bird Observatory (TLBO) was established by the Nature Conservatory of Canada (NCC) in 2006 to study whether their conservation activity in the valley was effectively protecting local biodiversity.
Each summer in August and September, TLBO operates a banding station to monitor migratory birds as they pass through the valley. Volunteers come from across the country to join NCC scientists to observe and track the thousands of birds that pass through this key migration corridor.
TLBO relies on the generous donations of individuals who value the work being done here. For information about how you can support this program, contact the BC Region of the Nature Conservancy of Canada at 1-888-404-2428 or bcoffice@natureconservancy.ca.
