Brookbanks Park and Deerlick Creek
From: Toronto's Ravines and Urban Forests
$0.60
Naturalist Jason Ramsay-Brown describes Brookbanks Park, located along Deerlick Creek in Toronto’s Don River watershed. He uses the park to illustrate how the ecological and historic importance of Toronto’s natural areas are too often invisible to visitors, and suggests that improved in-situ celebration of such might encourage more respect for nature and considerate use of our parks system.
