It began in 1992 when Nature Alberta self-published and distributed the Atlas of Breeding Birds of Alberta. The experience gained from this project has led to our involvement in the development and distribution of several other publications and, since then, Nature Alberta has collaborated with member clubs, government agencies and individuals to produce several additional natural history books. Here’s a snapshot of a couple of our recent publications:
Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas of Alberta: A Nature Alberta Checklist
Shorebirds of Alberta: A Nature Alberta ChecklistAlberta is fortunate to have a broad diversity of bird species and a large community of birding enthusiasts. Through our Bird and Biodiversity Program, we strive to be a strong voice for the recovery of bird species at risk, to increase the appreciation of Alberta’s bird biodiversity, and to promote birding as a worthy recreational pursuit that contributes to a healthy lifestyle. The Shorebirds of Alberta Checklist highlights a fascinating piece of our province’s biodiversity that we hope you will take the time to experience and enjoy.

Our historical newsletters contains a wealth of information about Alberta’s natural history with articles written by many of Alberta’s well-known expert and amateur naturalists alike. We have scanned and uploaded the first 25 years of newsletters and are pleased to share these archives with you. Read them here >>
