To See Every Bird in Canada
Wednesday, January 12, 2011
Well, here it is, the list of all the birds we hope to see riding across Canada from east to west this year. There are 423 species that we believe we have a shot at seeing, and there's always hope that some unexpected goodies will turn up in hotspots such as the Avalon Peninsula (Newfoundland), Grand Manan Island (New Brunswick), Rondeau Provincial Park (Ontario), Whitewater Lake (Manitoba) and Tofino (British Columbia).
However, you may notice some relatively easy western species are missing. This is because we don't feel we can peddle to the west coast in time before they depart south on their fall migration. Flammulated Owl, Black-chinned and Calliope Hummingbirds, Williamson's Sapsucker, Gray Flycatcher etc. we've already said goodbye to...but we should make up for it with the arrival of wintering species and fall vagrants on the BC coast.
