<div class="ExternalClass3A3717D32D2141AF8049B573384AAA7D"><div><div><p>As the only publicly accessible part of Burns Bog, the Delta Nature Reserve allows visitors to experience bog ecosystems. Stroll along rustic boardwalks meandering through forests and hardhack meadows, and over wet, soggy soils. Look for bog plants such as Labrador tea and bog laurel. Watch for songbirds, woodpeckers, hawks and eagles.<br></p></div></div></div>
