Winnipeg River and woodcock search
Contact / Registration: Contact Rudolf Koes at rkoes@mymts.net or at 204-661-0763 to register or for more information. (Please be aware that I will be away from home from early April until 25 April).
Please note late start time:
During spring migration stretches of the Winnipeg River attract numerous waterfowl. Geese, swans, diving ducks, grebes and loons are all expected. We also hope to see a number of raptors and songbirds. The outing will start at the Seven Sisters Falls parking lot at 2 p.m. and from there we will make our way downriver. Afterwards we head for Spruce Siding Road, where we hope to see American Woodcocks and possibly owls. Winnipeg participants should meet at the Safeway parking lot at Henderson Hwy. and Chief Peguis at 12:30 p.m. in order to carpool for a 12:45 departure. We will eat somewhere en route, so bring food.
