Sax-Zim Bog

Sunrise over the bog

Yesterday much of the staff got to go on a trip up to Sax-Zim Bog. This place is a boreal bog and is known having lots of boreal species including Great Gray Owls. We were in the bog before sunrise and had our eyes peeled for the large owl . We never did spy an owl but spotted lots of other species including a black-backed woodpecker. The highlight of the day was seeing a moose!
