October 3, 2009 - Opening of New Museum in Calgary - Bow Habitat

Robert Berdan spent the past year traveling to every corner of Alberta to photograph rivers, wildlife and fauna in Alberta. He also created a large number of panorama photos printed 8 feet tall and 12-30 feet wide which are used as backdrops for the new Bow Habitat museum in Calgary. The museum includes Alberta's first "eco-park", a fascinating hands-on classroom where you can learn about the natural environment right in the heart of Calgary. The Bow Habitat Station consists of an interpretive Visitor's Center, the Sam Livingstone Fish Hatchery, and the Pearce Estate Park Interpretive Wetland. Their Address is: 1440 17 A St. SE Calgary, AB - phone 403 297 6561. See Google interactive map
