Halton Hills is home to incredible birdlife, and now residents can help select our first-ever official Town Bird!
The Town of Halton Hills, Bird Friendly Halton Hills, and the Halton Hills Public Library are partnering on an exciting opportunity for residents to select a bird that will symbolize our vibrant community, and we want to hear from you!
On May 22, 2022, Halton Hills was certified by Nature Canada as the 14th Bird Friendly municipality in Canada recognizing years of community collaboration to preserve, protect, and restore our natural heritage and ecosystems. This initiative builds on the bird-safe window decal at the Halton Hills Public Library – Acton Branch, and further advances Halton Hills commitment to bird conservation.
