Victoria Day, Spring Songbird Migration Walk
Monday, May 19, 2025 7:30 a.m. ~ 10:30 a.m.
Jean Hampson and her husband Bob Highcock are conducting our eighth annual Victoria Day bird watching tour at a NEW location!
Walk through a Carolinian woodland searching for migrating warblers, thruses and vireos. We will be rewarded with other sightings such as wildflowers and interesting insects. The Lake Erie shoreline in this area is listed in the Hotspots and Day Trips section of 'Niagara Birds' and there is potential for viewing migrating shorebirds as well.
If you book this tour, you'll receive a 15% discount for a stay on this weekend, at Niagara Nature Tours Bed and Breakfast, Bonnybank, in the middle of The Owl Foundation in Vineland.
