#0289 "Kortwright Colours"

At the Kortwright Centre for Conservation with the family and assorted other kids during the fall of 1990. The bright fall colours of the trees behind the purple martin house caught my eye. It is challenging to keep any strucutre upright in a marsh. Purple martins were in the decline with pretty much all insects eaters due to many environmental reasons.

We were on the Cold Creek Trail to the west of the Kortright Centre for Conservation Administration building. Kortright is owned and operated by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA). I used to be quite involved with the TRCA when we lived in Schomberg.

The Kortright Centre opened in 1982 to become an example of excellence in the field of sustainable technology. We have implemented the best of those energy innovations at Singleton and I hope to do more.
