We are in the late winter phase of birding with a few of our earliest migrants trickling in and many of our wintering birds still lingering. The anticipation of spring birding!
The west end of Salmon Creek Greenway is usually excellent for viewing water birds and enjoying a variety of woodland species. We should encounter our resident birds in full song.
Bird Walks are meant to be a casual, local morning of birding. They are a great time to enjoy birds with others, find new areas to visit, and/or work on bird identification by sight and sound or to practice your eBird app with help when needed. These walks are usually easy to join or depart at any time during the morning, no commitment to participate in the entire walk if you have limited time.
Registration is strongly encouraged to make sure you can stay in the loop on updates such as those caused by unpredictable weather this time of year. In order to sign up visit Vancouveraudubon.org/bird-walks-field-trips or tap the link in our bio and navigate to "Bird Walks and Field Trips."
