Features
The Big O Drain Tile Company donated this 4.5 hectare (11 acre) property to the Lower Thames Valley Conservation Authority in 1992.
Big O Conservation Area has a variety of habitats and a number of nature trails that allow visitors to hike through these areas.
The conservation area is open for day use from 8 a.m. to sunset year-round, free of charge.
The Big O Conservation Area is one of southwestern Ontario’s birding ‘hot spots’. In early May, many species of migratory birds arrive at this conservation area after crossing Lake Erie. Birdwatchers can check which birds have arrived and add species to a log book located in the wooden bird box at the pond.
