The Nature Conservancy near Rosedale


This is where I spent the day, yesterday. Rosedale is a community in southern Alberta, located on Highway 56, 107 kilometres (66 mi) northeast of Calgary, at the confluence of Rosebud River and Red Deer River. It is 8 km southeast of Drumheller and this whole area is part of the Canadian Badlands - home of the dinosaurs.
The owners of a very beautiful home perched at the top of one of the hills generously allowed us to wander the area, recording all species of plants, birds, flowers, insects, etc. that we came across. Part of this family's land is under The Nature Conservancy of Canada. How we appreciate those who do everything they can to help preserve beautiful land, protecting it from development, keeping it safe for all of us and for future generations. We first explored the hilll in the foreground and then, after lunch, climbed the hill across the gravel road, on the right hand side of the photo, continuing down the valley. Thank you to the Browns for welcoming us and letting us botanize here, and for making coffee for us before we returned to Calgary. It tasted so good, especially after our long day! I've placed the photo on my map just at Rosedale, to give an idea of where Rosedale is located. I don't have the exact location for where we were.
