Mountainaire Avian Rescue Society volunteers have been busy building new aviaries and putting in native plant gardens and trails at the Vancouver Island wildlife rescue centre. Their hard work is about to pay off, as the MARS Visitor Centre in Merville reopens to the public in June, after an extended closure due to COVID restrictions.

People can book for a group of up to eight, for one-hour tours, Friday to Sunday between 10 a.m.
