Panama Flats
Saanich, Victoria, BC, Canada
|
Panama Flats has been
bought by Island Berry Co. They are working towards stopping Panama Flats from flooding even in the winter months. Their intention is to farm blueberries and possibly have a store and winery on the property. Stopping the flats from flooding in the winter is going to destroy the winter home of many types birds, including: many varieties of ducks, swan, American coot, Canadian geese, heron and more. Bald eagles hunt the flats all year round. Heron nest in the near by trees and fish the ditches and creek. Below are just a few photos that Karl and Stephanie Johanson took of some of the birds they have seen on Panama Flats. |
