Spring is here and changes are happening on the waters of Semiahmoo and Drayton Harbor. Though our wintering waterfowl will soon be thinning out, most should still be well represented, particularly Brant, Surf and White-winged Scoters, Common Goldeneyes, Buffleheads, Harlequin Ducks, Greater Scaup and Red-breasted Mergansers, as well as Common Loons and Horned Grebes. Bald Eagles, Anna’s Hummingbirds, cormorants, Black Oystercatchers, Killdeer and a few other species of shorebirds are regulars, plus resident songbirds and maybe a few early-arriving migrants. We can usually find 35 to 40 species on this trip in April.
No matter how experienced you are as a birder, you are welcome on this field trip. If you are new and need assistance, please let us know and ask questions. Come and join us.
Time: 9AM - Noon: Meet at Semiahmoo Park parking lot.
