Virtual tour of the garden Welcome to the Fletcher Wildlife Garden (FWG), a 7-hectare oasis in the middle of the city and safe refuge for wildlife. The Bill Holland Trail, named after a keen local volunteer and great birder, winds through a variety of habitats that will let you discover what it's like to be "wild in the city." If you're visiting the FWG, pick up a Trail Guide from the box in front of the bulletin board. If you can't visit us in person, take a virtual tour by clicking on the first mini-photo below and following the chipmunk from there. You might want to check the map first to orient yourself. The numbers next to the various sites below correspond to the ones on the map.
