The following walks are the beginning of a series being led by birder Brad Carey. The walks will be on Wednesdays and begin at 6:30pm.

Numerous migrants, including waterfowl, raptors, warblers and sparrows, should be present along the south shore of Lake Manitoba. With luck we'll find a rarity or two.

Mid-May is usually the peak time for passerine migration. The route will take you from Beausejour to Seven Sisters and Pinawa. Meet at Chryplywy Park in Beausejour at 8:00 a.m.

We will look for summer residents, such as Yellow-throated Vireo, Rose-breasted Grosbeak and perhaps Scarlet Tanager.

This is an excellent time to visit the Lake Manitoba beaches. With luck we may turn up a rarity or two, including tardy warblers and other passerines.

This half-day outing will start at 8 a.m. at the main parking lot. Late October is a good time to observe waterfowl, raptors and possibly late shorebirds.

This is your chance to get a start on your winter list. We hope to see lingering waterfowl, such as Long-tailed Duck and Harlequin Duck, or rare gulls.

Mid-March to Mid-April -- During this time, birders will be out at the St. Adolphe and Windygates hawk watch sites, weather permitting. Days with light winds, especially from the south, and sunny skies are best, but birds also migrate in less-than-ideal weather. 

We hope to see waterfowl, raptors, cranes and more on this traditional Nature Manitoba spring outing.

Mark your calendars for the evening of Monday, June 4. That's the date for our chimney swift watch at Saint Adolphe. Come out and see are five active chimneys in a small area plus one of our artificial nest structures. You may even win a door prize! Hopefully, the swifts will be dropping in to visit!

Meet Ward Christianson and Marlene Waldron at the Duck Pond parking lot of St. Vital Park at 6:30pm.

Meet Ward Christianson and Marlene Waldron at the parking lot of King's Park at 6:30pm.

This is an excellent time to visit the marsh. Snow Geese should be present by now. There should also be various raptors and lingering shorebirds.

Late fall is a good time to look for lingering waterfowl, raptors and gulls along the beaches of S.E. Lake Winnipeg. Winter passerines, such as Snow Buntings and redpolls, should also be present.

This is a great opportunity to see some wintering birds in the city. Join tens of thousands of other birders across North America in this event and help contribute to our knowledge of winter bird distribution. A pot luck dinner and compiling session will be held afterwards.

(date changed from May 4th to May 11th)
We'll search for loons, grebes, ducks, raptors and othe migrants along the Winnipeg River.  Meet at the Seven Sisters Dam at 9:00 a.m.

Meet at the English Garden entrance at 6:30pm.

Location Changed: Due to part of the Bunn's Creek trail being underwater, we are now meeting at Bunn's Creek Centennial Park @ 6:30pm (instead of at the parking lot on Henderson Hwy).

Meet at the main parking lot at 6:30pm.

At St. Adolphe there are five active chimneys in the area and an artificial nesting tower. There should be lots of activity as swifts search for insects and drop into nests in the area.   Meet at 8:00 p.m. in the parking lot of the Catholic church. Rate date will be June 10.
