MIGRATIONS

MIGRATIONS is a project that celebrates the 100th year treaty between Canada and USA in the conservation of migratory birds. The observational bird blind, shown here, is a permanent structure located in Cape Jourimain National Wildlife Area in New Brunswick. The bird blind allows the public to observe birds in the wild without frightening them by concealing the human figure. A component of the blind are aluminum "blades" displaying original artwork of migratory birds illustrated by Dylan Noble of Merchnnt. Prior to the construction of the bird blind the "bird blades" were integrated into an installation in the Halifax Public Library.
