šŸŒŽ Happy #EarthDay! Staff took time over lunch to head outside and clean up litter in the community. It's just one small way to give back, but it really shows their commitment to keeping our environment healthy and thriving. How are you marking Earth Day this year?

A calm morning on Lake Simcoe, captured by our monitoring team. The still water and quiet atmosphere made for an ideal start to the day. We’d love to see your favorite moments on the water! #LakeSimcoe #Sunrise #Monitoring

What does our lake team do when they're not on the boat? Lots of lab work! This week we're analyzing aquatic plant samples from last summer to track changes in invasive species populations and impacts to the fish community #LakeSimcoe #starrystonewort

Since April 14 the water clarity in Lake Simcoe has increased from 8.0 m to 15.2 m! The reason are hungry quagga mussels that are eating the spring algal bloom. Will this year break our all-time water clarity record of 23.4 m from 2024? Stay tuned! #Monitoring

Check out what our Lake Monitoring Team found. Is is tree pollen, algae, maybe pollution? This time is was the moulted husks of insect larvae (called exuviae). These ones are from the clouds of tiny midges (locally called mayflies) that have emerged with the warmer weather.

Spring Birding in Full Flight! Spring migration is here, and our Conservation Areas are alive with colour and song! Many of you have been out exploring with binoculars and cameras and so have we. We've been lucky to spot and photograph some truly spectacular birds this season.

Did you know Atherley Narrows is both an outlet and an inlet for Lake Simcoe? 🌊 Our team uses ā€œtilt sensorsā€ to track water flow direction and speed. This helps us understand how long water stays in the lake and how that affects nutrients and salt levels. #LakeSimcoe
