Make the "moose" out of life. 🤎 Nature is good for your body and brain. Research that shows even 20 minutes a day in nature can make a big difference to our health and well-being! #HPHP

Do you know the difference between a traditional project and an umbrella project on iNaturalist? For a traditional project, observations must be manually added. While many Ontario Parks have umbrella projects, Murphys Point has a traditional project. #DiscoverOP
