Our Board of Directors
Mary is a retired educator with an interest in nature. Volunteering with Lambton Wildlife has been a terrific way to meet people interested in our natural heritage and an opportunity to gain knowledge in a wide range of nature-related topics.
Brandy Fenwick moved to Lambton County in 2013 from Sudbury after completing her graduate studies in insect-plant relationships. She has connected with other like-minded nature-appreciators thanks to Lambton Wildlife, which helped to shape a sense of community in a new place. She has previously served on the board from 2017 to 2021, including as President in 2019-20. As a mom of young kids, she and her family also enjoy the Young Naturalists Club in hopes of inspiring another generation.
Jack got his introduction to Ontario’s natural surroundings growing up on a beef farm in the Sault Ste Marie area.
Farming required a good practical understanding of the area’s environment. Completion of post secondary education in agriculture and a better understanding of farm economics led Jack to a career in Ontario Hydro/Hydro One. In his 33 years as a Lineman and Instructor, Jack observed much of Ontario’s flora and fauna, even sheltering under some of it in bad weather.
In 2019 Jack acquired some new “unstructured “ time in retirement and sought out an organization with similar interests. Finding Lambton Wildlife Incorporated and the depth of knowledge its members have allows Jack a chance to explore and learn more about the many nuances of Lambton County.
Life long resident of Lambton County. Grew up on a small farm and as a young boy I loved spending a saturday roaming around the woods at the back of the farm with my dog. Around 2008 , I started thinking about a post career hobby that would fit in with travelling . By chance I took a short walk with a bird guide on a trip and became immediately fascinated with birding . Returning home I keep seeing new birds and wondering why I didn't notice them before. Birding has taken me around the world to places I never would have visited , about 50 countries so far.
