About Our Auction

From her home on Pimisi Bay, west of Mattawa, Louise de Kiriline Lawrence explored and documented the natural world surrounding her. From her exquisitely detailed notes documenting her observations of birds she penned several acclaimed books, and was a frequent contributor to Audubon magazine.

The Nipissing Naturalists Club has received approval to honour Louise de Kiriline Lawrence with an Ontario Heritage Trust plaque installed at Pimisi Bay - next door to Louise's "Loghouse Nest". Funds raised through this auction will go toward the installation cost of $5,000.


About Nipissing Naturalists Club

A diverse and friendly group, the Nipissing Naturalists Club originally formed in 1976, with the primary objective to observe and enjoy nature through field trips, meetings and discussions, and to stimulate interest and understanding of natural history.

The Nipissing Naturalists Club has received approval to honour Louise de Kiriline Lawrence with an Ontario Heritage Trust plaque installed at Pimisi Bay in Calvin Township, Ontario. The club is currently raising funds to have the plaque installed in summer 2016.
