Title | Dufferin Islands Welcome Sign |
| Creator

| Notes
| Dufferin Islands welcome sign : "Welcome to Dufferin Islands Natural Area. Prior to 1903 the Dufferin Islands area was a natural and relatively unspoiled fast-flowing watercourse that was an off-shoot caused by the inclination of the underlying rock formation towards the Canaddian side of the river. By 1920 diversion of water for the generation of electricity and the construction of many smaller islands in the channel turned the watercourse into a sedate, slow-flowing series of pools and ponds. the disturbed soil became an excellent seed bed for many plants, insluding non-native invasive alien plant species (IAS) such as Tree-of-Heaven, Norway maple and Purple Loostrife. In 2007 the Niagara parks Commission developed a management plan for Dufferin Islands to preserve the natural resources that still exist on the site. IAS are being removed and appropriate native plant species planted to increase the habitat quality. Interpretive trails are being upgraded and many interior trails have been closed to allow for natural regeneration for improved wildlife habitat. For more information visit www.Niagaraparksnature.com and please, stay on the gravel trails." |
