Meet at Semiahmoo County Park parking lot.

As we enter the month of April, we welcome the coming of spring and the northward movement of our wintering birds as well as those species that winter farther south. That can result in some exciting birding along our coastal waters. And, possibly, some better weather too. Brant, loons, scoters, scaup mergansers, golden-eyes and buffleheads will still be present along with plovers, oyster catchers, maybe a whimbrel or other shorebirds. The changing season should also stimulate the activity of songbirds along the spit and might bring in some early migrants.

Please join us for what is always a rewarding outing. New or potential birders are more than welcome. We usual walk up to two miles along the spit but those who may find that difficult are welcome to drive and rejoin the group along the way.
