Saskatchewan's Environmental Champions

Harold Pittman
(1889-1972)

Called "one of the most knowledgeable all-round naturalists to live in Saskatchewan,"* Harold Pittman visited western Canada from England three time before immigrating in 1913.

In 1923, he settled at Waupoche and pursued his hobby of studying and photographing nature. Pittman sold over 100 nature articles, illustrated with his own photographs, to major magazines in Canada, Britain and the U.S. and contributed articles to several journals. He compiled breeding records for 74 species of birds in the area of Waupoche.
