The Details
The walk will begin in the Fish Creek parking lot at 8:00 a.m. The varied habitat of sedges and grasses, shrubs, alder, willow, and conifers along with the fresh creek water mixing with incoming salt water creates a unique and beautiful estuary. Spring migration can bring flocks of sea and dabbling ducks, shorebirds, gulls, crows, and early songbird migrants. The trail is a relatively flat mile from the parking lot to the peninsula point.

New York, NY, Ithaca, NY, and Port Rowan, ON—Fun for one becomes multiplied when birders join forces for the annual Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC). Participating with friends, family, or a community group means there are more eyes to spot the birds and a deeper well of knowledge to draw from. Knowing where birds are seen—and not seen—is more important than ever during this El Niño year, and as climate change weather fluctuations influence bird movements.
The 27th annual Great Backyard Bird Count is taking place February 16 through 19, 2024.
More than an estimated half-million people participated during the 2023 GBBC. They reported more than 7,500 species of birds from 200+ countries.
