During the month of June, you have the opportunity to watch the turtles laying their eggs. Throughout the beautiful season, many species of turtles frequently visit the Mijocama site.

The ornithology amateur will be thrilled at the number of species he will be able to observe. Among them, Mallard duck, Pileated woodpecker, Bald eagle and the Turkey vulture.

Mammals are numerous at Giles Lake; from the small ones, as the hare or the fisher, to the largest ones, like the Black bear, the moose or the very commun Whitetail deer. It's here, in Upper-Gatineau, that you will find the Quebec's largest deer winteryard (with the exception of Anticosti island, wich was, of course, artificially stocked). The Thirty-One-Miles Lake winteryard has a population of more than 12 000 deers.

SO, DON'T FORGET YOUR CAMERA...!!!
