ThINC's Newsletter - The Ripple - May Issue

Did you know that the Western Screech Owl does not, in fact, 'screech', but instead has a call akin to a bouncing ball? And this call is being heard around Thetis Island! To learn more about our local Western Screech Owl population and recovery program, read more from Rob Welsh, ThINC's Coordinator for the Western Screech OwlRecovery Project, Purple Martin Recovery Project, and BC Community Bat Program.

Also in this issue, meet our summer Nature House Coordinator team, Eden and Erica, and read about what's new at the People's Apothecary Garden!
