These provide the greatest feast. It's true thal, as one of the Doukhobors told Minden, history has been made by Vancouver photographer Roger Minden. Unlike Holt, Minden has not set out in search of "the truth.” Nor has he, like Woodcock and Avak- umovie, tried to present a dispassionate history.

B.C. magazine recognized British Columbia’s oldest conservation magazine, Wild- life Review, has been awarded first prize in an international competition for conservation magazines. The award for outstand- ing writing and editing, was presented by the Association for Conservation Infor- mation, which represents provincial and state con- servation organizations throughout Canada and the United States. . Wildlife Review was first issued in 1954 by the former B.C. Game Commis- sion, and was edited for 22 years by Bill Ward, a former conservation officer with the commission. Following Ward's retirement in 1976, the magazine was updated and modernized, and has been edited for the past four years by David Berry, pub- lications manager of the min- istry of environment’s infor- mation services branch. Rogers said that B.C. was the only province in the country to have had this kind of magazine for such a long time. Many of the magazine's subscribers have been with the magazine since its first issue 25 years ago, he said. Subscriptions to Wildlife Review, which is published four times a year, may be obtained for $2 a year by awriting the circulation man- ager of the magazine c/o the information services branch, ministry of environment, 810 Blanshard St., Victoria, B.C.

Vancouver Sun Creston valley autumn delights wayrr4riny Osprey’s nest and maybe a Turkey Vulture or two. A great variety of mushrooms are popping up on the west- facing side of the hill in the moist areas. Blackcapped Chickadees and Red-Breast- ed Nuthatches can be heard flitting through the trees along the lower half of the walk. There is a large pop- ulation of Pine Siskins gath- ering on the lower hill and throughout the valley. Traversing the lower mountain slopes on the Dew- dney Trail, many Clark's Nutcrackers, a higher moun- tain bird, have been seen and heard. They are extracting seeds from the large Ponder- osa pine cones. Red Squirrels are madly dropping Douglas fir cones, also securing seeds for the coming winter. The orange Touch-me- nots are beginning to go to seed along the lower Dewd- ney Trail, north of the wooden bridge at the Summit Creek Campground. Press one of the seed heads and you will be. surprised at what happens, At the campground, you will also be able to view the Kokanee Salmon which have begun their run up Summit Creek in order to spawn. in the Creston Valley by Oct. 1. Hunting season for water fowl begins Oct. 1, and the birds seem to sense this. Many of them move into the Centre. Individual Whistling Swans will arrive throughout October, as well. A Few Reminders Feeding humming and other birds should be dis- continued now until the first of November so the birds “that are migrating will not be encouraged to stay. ‘i In this area where days drop below freezing often, in the winter metal containers should not be used to feed birds as their feet will stick to them. If winter feeding is begun in November, it should be continued until spring the following year. © A few feeding sugges- tions: Boil suet, add seeds, then freeze in small contain- . ‘ers. This mixture can then be set out for the birds. Peanut butter and suet can be com- - bined, but feeding birds straight peanut butter can be harmful - Suet mixtures can be smeared on pine cones, then hung from trees. Or cover the inside of a coconut cut in two with suet and hang it up. Feeders should be placed by shrubs as this provides birds with a place to sit and an escape area if necessary. We invite you to come and enjoy the autumn de- lights in the Creston moun- tain valley. PARTICIPATING in above kids and leaders.
