Couple of Forest Fires to Report

The forest fire season in Northwestern Ontario is starting to wind down, but there are still a few small blazes cropping up.
The Ministry of Natural Resources says they had to respond to a handful of fires in the Kenora District over the past couple of days.
Both started on island’s on Lake of the Woods and were caused by lightning.
One of the blazes was near Nestor Falls and was put out by volunteer fire crews.
The other was located southwest of Blueberry Island and grew to about 0.1 hectare, before being extinguished by fire ranger crews.
