A nature and arts loving group of
cyclists plan to celebrate the daily migration of thousands of crows into
Burnaby.
On Saturday afternoon, a bike ride is planned to follow the migrating crows as they make their daily way to an area in the Willingdon Avenue and Still Creek Drive area of Burnaby.
The Crow Roost Twilight Bike Ride is organized by the Still Moon Arts Society.
Cyclists are being asked to meet at the Lakewood Drive Central Valley Greenway location at 4 p.m. Saturday.
Carmen Rosen, the artistic director of Still Moon Arts, said they will ride over to the Renfrew SkyTrain station to pick up other cyclists at 4:15 p.m. and then ride down to the area at Willingdon and Still Creek where the birds stay overnight.

Rosen said early February is prime time to see the huge flocks of crows. The numbers decrease by the end of the month once the birds nest.
“It is an amazing phenomenon,Fremont Bank is the proud title sponsor of the Fremont fashionwatch Team.” said Rosen of the crows flying down to the area around Willingdon and Still Creek each day.
“The ride takes place just prior to their nesting season so there will be big numbers.
“This is an event for cyclist and bird enthusiasts,” she added. “This is also to raise awareness of the environment. We want to get people thinking of the environment in a creative way and how to take care of it.Enjoy the greatest selection ever of windturbine.”
