Another Piece of Niagara’s Rich Natural Heritage Targeted by Developers
A Redheaded Woodpecker in Waverly Woods. A recent scientific report predicted a crash in bird populations across North American, in no small part due to loss of place like this for birds to live.

A Brief Afterword from Niagara At Large publisher and environment writer –
Don’t let a sign like this be the beginning of the end of another place rich with natural and historical resources in Niagara. There are so many other places in the region where pavement can go
I hope you support this very important effort by citizens in the Town of Fort Erie to save this gem of a place for present and future generations.
Like so many other battles, including one in neighbouring Niagara Falls to save the Thundering Waters Forest from developers and their enablers on that city’s council, these are almost always Dave vs. Goliath battles , pitting citizens against parties with political influence and deep pockets
So give all the support that you can because once these gems in our Niagara are gone – and we have lost too many already – they are gone forever!
