Bird outings are held on a regular basis throughout the year, primarily in the spring/fall. They are a great way to share knowledge and meet other people interested in Manitoba birds. 

Note that a trip’s difficulty is rated using the following Trip Rating Guidelines.

Nature Manitoba is pleased to offer a number of birding outings during the Fall of 2026. These outings are meant for members. Non-members are welcome but it is expected that they become members if they plan to attend several outings. Most outings will involve car-pooling. Please be aware that when carpooling, the expectation is that passengers will share in the cost of fuel.

 All outings are weather permitting.

If you are a member, please contact the trip leader directly with any questions, as listed below, otherwise please contact our office.
