Ulat ng mga lokal na tagamasid na maraming uri ng warbler ang naitala sa mga unang pagbibilang ng migrasyon ngayong linggo sa Calgary, at binigyang‑pansin ang mga panganib sa lungsod tulad ng pagbangga sa mga bintana at limitadong puno sa ilang kapitbahayan.
  2. Sinuspinde ang pansamantalang programang pabahay sa Banff matapos gamitin ito ng 155 katao noong nakaraang taon. Sinabi ng Parks Canada na pansamantalang itinigil ang programa habang nire-review ng mga awtoridad ang inisyatiba.
