Delta Nature Reserve (a.k.a Burns Bog)


The Delta Nature Reserve covers 148 acres (60 hectares), which is ten times the size of Stanley Park. It lies in the northeastern corner of a place called Burns Bog. The Nature Reserve comprises less than 2% of the total area of Burns Bog, and is the only part of Burns Bog that is protected. I learnt after going here that the Nature Reserve has three loops of boardwalks and trails. Apparently one hike takes you past a beaver dam, we looked out for one but didn't see it - obviously weren't on the right stretch of trail. Alex really wants to see "Jacque the Beaver" (from Bear in the Big Blue House), but said he would be happy enough to see his "house".
