Birdwatching
Birds are symbolic of freedom. They capture our imagination and astound us with their astonishing migrations! Some birds can fly in excess of 40,000km per year! No wonder bird watching is one of the largest recreational activities in Canada and the United States. It’s easy and fairly inexpensive to do; all you need is a pair of binoculars and a bird book! A great place to start would be along rivers or on lakes, where there is not much foliage and birds are out in the open. The best time of year is in April to early June when mating and nesting is taking place.
