YOUR ITINERARY
Day 1 - Arrival in Calgary
Participants will be arriving in Calgary throughout the day. For
those arriving early, there are opportunities for birding in and
around Calgary. The Inglewood Bird Sanctuary along the Bow
River is an excellent area for foothills and riverine species,
and is easily accessible within the city of Calgary. Alternately,
there are some great museums worth visiting in the city.
Contact the tour leader for helpful suggestions. We meet in
the evening at our hotel for a get-together and a discussion of
the next days activities. Night in Calgary.
Days 2 - Prairie Sloughs and the Drumheller Badlands
After breakfast we head east along the Trans-Canada
Highway and onto the open short-grass plains characteristic
of southeastern Alberta. Along the drive we pass some very
rich wetlands that host up to 15 species of waterfowl including
Cinnamon Teal. Other targets in this area include Horned and
Eared grebes, foraging Black Terns, and several shorebirds
including Wilsons Phalarope, American Avocet, Willet and
a few Black-necked Stilt feeding along the shoreline. After
weve explored this rich birding area we will continue on our
way east to the town of Drumheller in the badlands of the
upper Red Deer River Valley.
After a picnic lunch, we spend the afternoon exploring the
valley with its canyons, hoodoos, and considerable geologic
history. In the late afternoon, we arrive at our hotel in
Drumheller, where we spend the next two nights.

Alberta Birds & Dinosaurs
Amazing landscapes, great birds, and one of the richest
dinosaur fossil sites in the world. The bulk of our days will
be spent exploring the Red Deer River Valley badlands and
adjacent prairies around Drumheller and Dinosaur Provincial
Park. Breeding season will be in full swing in this amazing
region of central Alberta, and birding will be the focus each
morning. We will explore several unique habitats including
Prairie sloughs, riparian Cottonwood forests, and the desert-
like conditions of the badlands. Our afternoons will be spent
learning about the unique geology and natural history of
the region at Dinosaur Provincial Park and the Royal Tyrrell
Museum of Palaeontology.
Both images Eagle Eye Tours
Day 3 - Grassland Birds and Dinosaur Provincial Park
After an early breakfast, we head southeast through short-
grass prairies toward picturesque Dinosaur Provincial Park.
En route to the park we will make several stops looking for
Spragues Pipits, Chesnut-collared Longspurs, Long-billed
Curlews, and Pronghorns. The extensive badlands within
the park are home to Says Phoebes, Rock Wrens, Lark
Sparrows, Prairie Falcons, Mountain Bluebirds, and a small
population of Violet-green Swallows. In the sagebrush at
Dinosaur PP there are Brewers Sparrows along with oodles
of Clay-colored Sparrows. Other goodies we might fnd
today include Yellow-breasted Chat and Brown Thrasher in
the riparian scrub, along with Loggerhead Shrike and even
Eurasian Collared-Dove just outside the park.
After a picnic lunch, we will take time to explore the visitor
centre and learn more about the wealth of dinosaur fossils
within this UNESCO World Heritage Site. We will return to our
hotel in Drumheller late in the day.
Day 4 - Drumheller and the Royal Tyrrell Museum of
Palaeontology
Today we spend the bulk of our day in and around
Drumheller. After breakfast we look for forest birds in the
riparian Cottonwoods of McMullen Island Provincial Park
where we should fnd Red-naped Sapsucker, Western Wood-
Pewee, and perhaps some late migrants. From here we make
our way to the world-renowned Royal Tyrrell Museum of
Palaeontology, where we will spend several hours exploring
the exhibits. In the afternoon we will head west toward
Calgary, stopping at Horseshoe Canyon en route. Night in
Calgary.
Day 5 - Departure
Our tour ends after breakfast.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Easy to moderate walking
Warm to hot but potentially changeable summer weather,
cool at night
Good quality accommodation
Lots of photographic opportunities
4-8 participants with one leader, 9-12 with two
15 passenger van(s)
Evening meals not included
On our Alberta tour, we start our day with an early breakfast
and then head off for most of the day, having a picnic lunch
around noon. Days are long at this time of the year, and
we make the best use of our time accordingly. Our day in
Dinosaur Provincial Park will involve a fair bit of driving with
numerous birding stops there and back.
The Alberta badlands are likely to be warm or even hot during
the day, with a possibility of rain. It can be quite windy
at times. However, being the northern prairies, a cold
front could move through, so it is best to be prepared for
changeable weather. Evenings are likely to be cool, nights
can be quite chilly, and early mornings can likewise be cool
before it warms up.
It is unlikely to snow. Nevertheless, participants should layer
their clothing as conditions can change quickly while we are
in the feld. Mosquitoes are equally unpredictable in late May;
we may encounter just a few, or rather a lot. Participants
should include bug repellent and perhaps a head net in their
luggage, just in case! An umbrella would be useful.
Each evening we compile the days checklist, review the
days activities, birds, mammals and other observations,
and plan the next days activities.
PLEASE NOTE: This is our intended itinerary. Wildlife sightings and some activities depend on favourable conditions. As with all of our adventures, weather,
sea and road conditions are a determining factor and will dictate our itinerary.

Newfoundland Close-Up: Notre Dame Bay
Come travel Newfoundlands Road to the Isles. The stars
are Twillingate, Change Islands and Fogo which lie among
dozens of islands in Notre Dame Bay. Here the Labrador
current, the famous Iceberg Alley, embraces the northeast
coast of Newfoundland carrying with it magnifcent ice
castles that have traveled to these shores from the high
Arctic. Change Islands and Fogo remain accessible only
by ferry and thus retain the indelible mark of simpler times.
They embody the historic and cultural essence of Notre
Dame Bay. Boat builders, fsher folk and crafters are the
heart of the communities here. Fishing stages, fakes, and
even the greatly endangered Newfoundland ponies are
plentiful and make for endless photographic inspiration.
These islands are true treasures where the distinctive
character and charm of Newfoundland is alive and well.
Rocky, rugged and windswept, the land- and seascapes
have an elemental quality that helped forge the people
whose spirits are quick to incite laughter sure to warm
your soul. Join Dennis Minty and Antje Springmann on this
photographic feast of a tour, the islands of Notre Dame Bay.
This is a tour for photographers of all levels, their
companions and the artistically-minded. Your particular
needs and interests are addressed in a multi-dimensional
tour that mixes experiential learning with one-on-one
coaching in an inspiring setting.
Twillingate is Dennis Mintys birthplace and he has deep
roots here. He and Antje will open doors to places and
experiences undiscovered by the casual tourist. So pack
your camera and join us to explore the photographic gem
that is Newfoundlands Notre Dame Bay, an unforgettable
experience that will leave you inspired and more adept at
capturing the natural world with your camera.
ITINERARY
Day 1 to 3: Twillingate
Your trip begins in Gander, made famous by the hospitality it
showed to thousands of stranded travelers on 9/11. Here you
will meet your guides. Our drive to Twillingate on the Road to
the Isles will give us a frst glimpse of Notre Dame Bay. Our
home base is directly in the picturesque town of Twillingate
and its historic harbor, which still hold an important place in
the Newfoundland fshery. From here we explore not only the
town but many delightful hidden coves and tiny communities
nearby. We will have the opportunity to experience the rugged
scenery on pleasant coastal hikes and spend some time on
the water getting a close up view of nearby icebergs.
Day 4: Change Islands
A short drive and ferry ride takes us to Change Islands,
thought to be so called because early settlers once occupied
one island in the summer and moved to another for the
winter. We overnight in a stately and beautifully restored
fsh merchants house dating to the early 1900s. Directly
from our accommodations we can take leisurely strolls to
explore the little community. You will also be introduced to the
Newfoundland pony, a rare breed in Canada when we visit the
sanctuary where local people are working hard to maintain
this strong, resilient yet critically endangered pony that was
central to life and survival in outport Newfoundland.
Day 5 to 7: Fogo
Another ferry ride takes us to the larger island of Fogo. The
people of Fogo are well-known for their independent spirit and
their pride in preserving traditional way of life. It has one of
Newfoundlands most thriving wooden boat building traditions
where the little boats called punts are still made by hand.
Fogo is dotted with numerous picturesque communities for
Dennis Minty
us to explore and we plan to see them all. This is also a great
place for rambling so we will take advantage of the coastal
trails and aim to come across the plentiful caribou that roam
the island.
Day 8: Gander
Today the ferry takes us from Fogo to Farewell and the
road back to Gander. Along the way we take time to visit
and explore sights like the ancient Beothuk settlement in
Boyds Cove and a visit to the Spirit Garden erected there by
Newfoundlands First Nations in honour of the now extinct
Beothuk people, the original inhabitants of the island. We end
our trip in Gander and celebrate with a farewell dinner before
parting the next morning.

YOUR ITINERARY
Day 0 - Arrival in Ottawa
Participants will need to be in Ottawa the night prior to our
fight to Pond Inlet. We are happy to help arrange this night
in Ottawa. If schedules allow, we can meet for an evening
meal in Ottawa. Those arriving early may enjoy a visit the
Canadian Museum of Nature before dinner. Night in Ottawa.
Day 1 - Travel to Pond Inlet
We leave Ottawa in the morning for our fights to Pond Inlet
at the northern tip of Baffn Island in the Canadian Arctic.
After a plane change in Iqaluit, the capital of Nunavut, we
should arrive in Pond Inlet in the afternoon. After dinner
we will have plenty of time for a short walk around town
because the sun does not set at this time of year. Hotel night
in Pond Inlet.
Day 2 - Travel to the foe edge
In the morning we will explore the shoreline, tundra and
ponds close to Pond Inlet. We will encounter some of the
more common species such as Lapland Longspur, Horned
Lark and Snow Bunting, with possible American Pipit
and Northern Wheatear. We will be looking for Common
Ringed Plover here and elsewhere. This mostly Palearctic
species has a very small breeding range in North America,
restricted to the eastern Arctic of Canada. After lunch, we
will depart for the foe edge. We travel by komatik, which
is a wooden sled lashed together and pulled behind a
snowmobile. This is the traditional means of travel for the
Inuit, the only difference is that snowmobiles have replaced
dog teams.
Enroute we may have the opportunity to get up close and
personal with several icebergs that have spent the winter
frozen in place. These can be both beautiful and enormous
HIGHLIGHTS

Rugged mountains, stunning glaciers, focks of northern
seabirds, the wonderful Narwhal, and traditional Inuit
culture this is what awaits us on a truly amazing tour to
the wilderness of northern Baffn Island. We experience this
dramatic Arctic landscape at a time of year when the sun
never sets and wildlife is returning to this very rich area of
the Arctic. There are northern birds in abundance, including
Thick-billed Murre, Black-legged Kittiwake, and King and
Common Eiders. Other highlights include Sabines and
Thayers gulls, Red-throated Loon and with much luck, we
may see the all white Ivory Gull! In addition, the mixing of
ocean currents from Baffn Bay and Lancaster Sound makes
the marine life very rich! At this time of year, the sea ice is
melting back and marine mammals are traveling north along
the ice foe edge where food is concentrated. We hope
to see several species of seals and the amazing spiral-
tusked Narwhal. With luck we will also see polar bear or the
endangered bowhead whale. Remote wilderness, striking
Arctic landscapes, rich northern wildlife, and fascinating
culture this promises to be the experience of a lifetime!
as they await break up of the ice before they continue
to drift southward. The foe edge is where the winter ice
meets the open waters of Baffn Bay and it is where the
wildlife is concentrated on their northward migration. We
should have wonderful opportunities to photograph and
enjoy the wildlife. The birding at the foe edge should be
superb! Hundreds of Northern Fulmars, Brant, Common
and King eiders, and all three species of jaegers will
be a treat. We will see hundreds or even thousands
of Thick-billed Murres, many Black Guillemots, and
with luck, several Dovekie in their very sharp breeding
plumage! We will also see a collection of northern gulls:
Glaucous, Thayers, Sabines, Black-legged Kittiwake,
and with much luck, Ivory Gull and even Rosss Gull is
possible. You have to travel very far north to fnd this
beautiful all white arctic gull, but here we will be in the
heart of its range. Unfortunately, they have become
quite scarce in the last several years and are now an
endangered species. We will have the opportunity
to watch as these and possibly other species move
northward along the foe edge.
Days 36 - Floe edge and Bylot Island
Our daily activities will depend on the location of the foe
edge and weather conditions, but will likely include these
highlights. We will use a camp near the foe edge for
these nights.
Bylot Island
Bylot Island is part of the recently declared Sirmilik
National Park and is one of the largest bird
refuges in the world. We plan
to go for a walk
near our camp to see the remains of several traditional
sod and whalebone houses, used until recently by the
Inuit. On the tundra, we look for many of the common
northern species that are returning from the south at
this time of year. Shorebirds are sparsely distributed,
but we hope to fnd several species nesting including
American Golden-Plover, Bairds Sandpiper, White-
rumped Sandpiper and Red Phalarope. On the cliffs,
we will look closely for Gyrfalcon, including white-morph
individuals, and Peregrine Falcon. In the ponds on Bylot
Island and around Pond Inlet, we will search for Red-
throated Loon, Cackling Goose, Greater Snow Goose,
and Long-tailed Duck. It should be a spectacular setting
being on the tundra surrounded by the rugged snow-
covered mountains that rim the eastern Arctic.
Visit to Seabird Colony
From our camp, if ice conditions permit, we will travel
to the seabird colony on Bylot Island. North of Cape
Graham Moore, these cliffs rise thousands of feet and
host over 40,000 Thick-billed Murres and 6,500 Black-
legged Kittiwakes. Hundreds of them will be coming and
going from their precarious ledges as they head
east to feed at the foe edge.
PLEASE NOTE: This is our intended itinerary. Wildlife sightings and some activities depend on favourable
conditions. As with all of our adventures, weather, sea and road conditions are a determining factor and will
dictate our itinerary.
At the Floe Edge
We will likely spend most of our time at the foe edge with
the hope of seeing some of the more elusive species that
will be moving by, including marine mammals. Waiting
patiently at the foe edge should improve our chances of
seeing that amazing northern whale, the Narwhal. We will
be watching for groups of these bizarre creatures, with
their long spiraled tusks the males tusk can be up to 7
feet long! This will surely be a highlight! It is also possible
to see Bowhead Whales, Walrus, and that creature of
legend, Nanook, the Polar Bear, but we will need some
luck for these. The foe edge will also give us the chance to
see Ringed, and possibly Bearded and Harp Seals.
Day 7 - Return to Pond Inlet
After a fnal morning at the foe edge, we leave our camp
for our return to Pond Inlet. On our journey we may view
the towering hoodoos of Bylot Island plus the spectacular
landscape of mountains and massive glaciers. Hotel night
in Pond Inlet.
Day 8 - Travel to Ottawa and onward
We reluctantly leave this magical northern hamlet and fy
south to Iqaluit and on to Ottawa, arriving in the afternoon,
usually with time to catch connecting fights home. We will
head home with many fond memories from this amazing
adventure in the land of the midnight sun.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Early June is still cold in the Arctic. Temperatures may
not be much above freezing and it could snow, but warm
layered clothing along with the waterproof boots should
keep you warm. It is usually sunny though and the sun is
up 24 hours, so bring sunscreen. We will provide all of the
necessary camping equipment including a warm sleeping
bag for the nights camping.
Our daily activities will be focused on looking for and
watching birds and other wildlife at the foe edge or on the
tundra, but we wont hesitate to enjoy other aspects of the
natural and cultural history of this area.
While we have outlined the detailed itinerary, this schedule
and our daily activities will be very dependent on the
daily weather and ice conditions. In addition, we cannot
guarantee single occupancy in our hotel in Pond Inlet.

ITINERARY
Day 1: Arrival in St. Johns
Our tour commences upon arrival in St. Johns. If
time permits, we visit Signal Hill for a frst sampling of
Newfoundland birds, such as Fox Sparrow, and tundra-like
vegetation. Alternatively, we may do a little sightseeing in St.
Johns along Marine Drive. Signal Hill derives its name from
the frst wireless Trans-Atlantic message, received in 1901 at
this location by Marconi; a museum in Cabot Tower on the hill
commemorates the event. Geologically, the Avalon Peninsula
is a noted region for Precambrian fossils. Night in St. Johns.
Days 2 & 3: Avalon Peninsula and Witless Bay
Our activities during the next two days are weather
dependent. One day we take a boat trip to the fabulous
multi-island seabird sanctuary at Witless Bay where there are
spectacular nesting colonies of Atlantic Puffns, Common
Murres, Razorbills, Black-legged Kittiwakes and Northern
Fulmars. Great Island, one of three large islands in Witless
Bay, is itself home to over half-a-million birds, including over
two hundred thousand Atlantic Puffns and ffty thousand
Black-legged Kittiwakes. Several hundred thousand Leachs
Storm-petrels nest in burrows on top of the island, but they
are rarely visible during the day, as they return to their
burrows at night to avoid predators such as Herring and Great
Black-backed Gulls. We also have a good chance of seeing
whales, most likely Humpbacks and Minke. On our return
to St. Johns, we take in Cape Spear National Historic Site,
the easternmost point of land in North America and where
a lighthouse has operated since 1836. This is an excellent
vantage point for scanning the ocean for seabirds, whales
and icebergs!
The other day, we drive the loop around the Southern Avalon
Peninsula. We head south from St. Johns, stopping at
several promising sites to bird the scrubby woodland typical

Natural highlights of the Avalon Peninsula
Newfoundland offers a unique blend of marvelous birds and
other wildlife amidst spectacular scenery in a land steeped in
history and culture! Nature abounds.
Fabulous seabird colonies dot the Avalon Peninsula -
thousands of Northern Gannets, Atlantic Puffns, Black-
legged Kittiwakes, Common Murres and more. Cape St.
Marys hosts a spectacular Northern Gannet colony with
glorious photo opportunities. We take a boat trip to the
fabulous multi-island seabird sanctuary at Witless Bay
where there are amazing nesting colonies of seabirds and
excellent chances to see Humpback and Minke whales.
Add in wildfowers, interesting landbirds, moose and other
mammals, fascinating geology and even the range restricted
Short-tailed Swallowtail butterfy and you have a remarkable
natural history experience!
Extend your East coast adventure with an in-depth
exploration of the Avalon Peninsula.
of the peninsula and the numerous inlets and bays. We
visit Renews for Arctic Tern and Chance Cove for seals and
landbirds, such as Gray-cheeked Thrush, Fox Sparrow and
Blackpoll Warbler. We should encounter Boreal Chickadee,
Northern Waterthrush and Wilsons Warbler, and with luck
Common Redpoll, a local population which nests here. Bogs
and wetlands throughout the Avalon support numerous
interesting plants, including Pitcher Plants the provincial
fower of Newfoundland and Labrador and sundews, both
insectivorous, and orchids such as Pink Ladys Slippers.
The Avalon Peninsula caribou herd occurs near Cape Pine,
and we have a chance of seeing it. Cape Pine also has nesting
Puffns and Razorbills, and there is always the possibility of
fnding Willow Ptarmigan along the road. At our next stop,
Point Lehaye, we look for Arctic Terns, in case we missed
them at Renews. We will also keep an eye out for Short-tailed
Swallowtail, a butterfy that occurs on grassy hills, and we will
always be on the lookout for Moose! Nights in St. Johns.
Day 4: Cape St. Marys
Today we start early and head out along the Trans Canada
Highway across the Avalon Peninsula toward Cape St.
Marys, for the spectacular Northern Gannet colony at Bird
Rock. Bird Rock is reached by a 1-km footpath through the
open meadows that top steep cliffs, where wild iris grow and
sheep sometimes graze. Cape St. Marys is one of the worlds
most southerly expanses of sub-Arctic tundra. Mosses,
lichens, alpine wildfowers, and low-growing shrubs carpet the
seemingly treeless plateau over which we walk. The area has
ponds, bogs, brooks, and sheer cliffs plunging down to the
sea. Offshore, during the summer, spouts of whales can often
be spotted. At Bird Rock are glorious opportunities for taking
photographs; the colony of gannets numbers in the thousands
and nesting pairs are easily visible. Flying individuals
often hang in the air on updrafts in front of the viewing
locations, and the colony site itself, the stack (a huge rock
separated from the mainland by a narrow steep drop) is most
photogenic. Great Cormorant, Black-legged Kittiwake, both
species of Murres and Black Guillemots are also present,
American Pipits and Horned Larks occur on the open barrens
between the parking lot and the colony, and Leachs Storm-
petrels are sometimes visible by spotting scope offshore.
If time permits, we follow the coast to Castle Hill National
Historic Site for passerines, such as Pine Grosbeak. Castle
Hill is so named for the French and English fortifcations
dating back to the mid-1600s, and the top of the hill overlooks
the superb harbour of Placentia Bayindeed, Basque
fshermen had used the harbour from the early sixteenth
century. Night in St. Johns.
Day 5: Departure
We may have time in the morning for some sight-seeing in St.
Johns, before connecting with your departure to the airport.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Easy to moderate walking
Unpredictable warm/cool weather
Cool to cold breezes off the ocean at times
Boat trip to seabird colonies
3 to 5 with one leader, 6 to 14 with two leaders
One or two minivans or one larger bus with driver
Early morning birding will be the usual beginning to the day,
depending upon the days activities. Weather can be variable;
warm cloudless days can alternate with cool foggy days,
especially along the coast, and we will plan our daily itinerary
accordingly. It is a good idea to have footwear that is
waterproof. There is a trip into Witless Bay, which can be cool,
so appropriate layered clothing is recommended. The boat is
comfortable, with shelter and lots of seating space, and the
captains are usually very entertaining!
Most trails and paths are easy to moderate. Bring mosquito
repellent - mosquitoes are not usually a problem anywhere
except perhaps in sheltered trails. We will have the expertise
of a local guide who is completely familiar with the area. Each
evening, the list of birds and other wildlife will be reviewed,
and plans for the next day discussed.

High Arctic Photo Tour
In mid-summer Canadas HIgh Arctic region provides a
rare mix of elements that combine to provide a superb and
unique photographic experience sure to appeal to any nature
photographer. This tour mixes never-ending, strikingly-clear
light with unsurpassed opportunities to photograph many
avian and mammalian subjects in settings that are only rarely
- if ever - encountered in more southerly latitudes.
Well spend time in two locations during this trip. First, well
visit the Cambridge Bay area on Victoria Island. This large
arctic island is home to many species of birds and provides
opportunities to photograph a large number of avian species
- on land, water and while in fight. Well also spend time on
the northern edge of Nunavuts mainland exploring some
major rivers in the Kugluktuk region. These rivers and their
basins are home to abundant wildlife and well have the
chance of encountering and photographing some of the
large mammals of the High Arctic - such as caribou, wolves,
brown bears, arctic foxes, and possibly even wolverines.
Our full list of potential subjects during this tour is varied
and includes several species of shorebirds in rarely-seen
breeding plumage, such as the regal American Golden-
Plover; both Common and King Eiders; Snowy Owls; striking
Sabines and Glaucous Gulls; Arctic Terns; Cackling and
Greater White-Fronted Geese; Long-tailed Jaegers; Snow
Buntings; Lapland Longspurs; Long-tailed Ducks and more.
Muskox, Arctic Foxes, Gray Wolves, Brown Bears and other
mammals are found in the regions well be visiting. The
tundra itself is covered in wildfowers at this time of year and
well be presented with expansive landscapes just waiting to
be photographed!
Lead by award-winning photographer Brad Hill, this tour will
focus on fnding and exploiting the high-quality photographic
opportunities presented on the tundra of the Canadian Arctic
- the fauna, the fora, and the very land itself.
An optional day of professional-level photography instruction
by Brad Hill covering essential image-capture skills,
techniques, tips, and tricks is offered at the beginning of the
trip. Well touch on a wide array of topics - from capturing
compelling landscape images through to the nuances of
getting that jaw-dropping fight shot!
Photographers of all levels are welcomed on this tour, but
it is assumed that participants will be coming equipped with
digital SLR cameras.
YOUR ITINERARY
Please note that those participating in the optional day
of photography instruction at the beginning of the tour
must arrive in Edmonton one day earlier than those
opting out of the instructional day.
Day 0 - Arrival in Edmonton
(Photography instruction participants only)
Those attending the optional day of photography instruction
will be arriving throughout the day. For those arriving
early enough, there are opportunities for birding and/
or photography on your own in and around Edmonton.
Alternately, there are some great attractions worth visiting in
the city, including the world-renowned West Edmonton Mall.
We meet in the evening at our hotel for a get-together. Night
in Edmonton.
Days 1 - Photography Instruction or Arrival in Edmonton
Photography instruction participants: Following breakfast
in our hotel, we will spend the morning in a classroom-style
instructional session on wildlife and bird photography led
by Brad Hill. Well cover a range of technical and creative
topics related to capturing top-notch images, as well as
discussing some of the unique photographic challenges well
face on this tour. If past experience holds true, well have
ample opportunity to capture bird-in-fight shots on this tour.
Consequently, well spend considerable time discussing
techniques used to capture compelling fight shots. Well
leave ample time after lunch for photography questions and
hands-on sessions with our equipment, including how to
set up a modern digital SLR for maximum effectiveness for
wildlife photography.
Photographers NOT attending the instructional session:
Arrival in Edmonton. For those arriving early enough,
there are opportunities for birding and/or
photography on your own in and around Edmonton.
Alternately, there are some great attractions worth visiting in
the city.
Both groups will meet in the evening at our hotel to meet one
another, and to discuss possible last-minute changes in the
itinerary that could be caused by inclement weather. Night in
Edmonton.
Days 2 - Travel to Cambridge Bay
After an early breakfast well depart Edmonton en route to
Cambridge Bay on Victoria Island, Nunavut. After settling
into our accommodations early in the afternoon, well have
ample time to explore the area in and around the town. Some
species - such as Lapland Longspurs and Snow Buntings -
are very abundant, approachable and easiest to photograph
within the town limits.
Night in Cambridge Bay.
Day 3-5 - In the Pursuit of Great Photo Ops!
We will spend days 3 through 5 pursuing the best
photographic opportunities for Arctic wildlife found in the
tundra surrounding Cambridge Bay. Well travel and explore
both by van and by foot (so come equipped to carry your
photographic gear!). While Victoria Island harbours a
number of mammal species - including Arctic Foxes,
caribou and muskox - its likely most good
photographic opportunities here will be
of avian subjects. At this time of
year were likely
to encounter many species of shorebirds in full breeding
plumage (e.g., American Golden-Plovers), numerous
duck and goose species (including Long-tailed Ducks,
Greater White-fronted Geese, Cackling Geese), a number of
rarely seen gull species (e.g., Glaucous and Sabines Gull),
seabirds such as Long-tailed Jaegers, and even nesting
Rough-legged Hawks and Snowy Owls. And, there will be
expansive landscapes covered in a blanket of wildfowers
just waiting to be photographed each day.
Well have 24-hour sunlight at this time of year, including
long periods of golden light in the early morning and
late evenings. Were likely to take breaks mid-day to allow
participants to download and/or sort their images. Therell
also be suffcient time then for impromptu photography
questions, instruction, and discussions.
Nights 3, 4, and 5 plus morning of Day 6 in Cambridge Bay.
Day 6 - Travel to Kugluktuk
Mid-day well take the short fight from Cambridge Bay to
Kugluktuk (on the northern coast of the Nunavut mainland).
After settling in well have time to explore the area in and
around the town - including the new museum.
Night in Kugluktuk.
Day 7 - More Exploration Around Kugluktuk
After an early breakfast well board jet boats and spend
the bulk of the day exploring two rivers close to Kugluktuk.
During the expedition well stop to photograph any wildlife
we encounter, which could include caribou, wolves, grizzly
bears, Arctic Foxes, and more. There is even a possibility
we could encounter the rarely photographed wolverine! Our
priority will be, as always, seeking out the best photographic
opportunities and exploiting them to the maximum (this
will take precedence over maximizing the total number of
species recorded).
Night in Kugluktuk.
Day 8 - Exploration of Coppermine River; Flight to
Edmonton
After breakfast well take a jet boat to travel up yet one more
river - the famous Coppermine. Well head up as far as
Bloody Falls, the site of a massacre of unsuspecting Inuit by
Dene warriors in 1771. The steep walls along portions of the
river are home to Bald Eagles, Gyrfalcons, and more. Well
stop to photograph any wildlife we encounter, which again
could include caribou, wolves, grizzly bears, Arctic Foxes,
and more.
Mid-afternoon well board our fight to Edmonton.
Night in Edmonton.
Day 9 - Departure
Our time together draws to an end following breakfast. Our
hope is that your photographs and memories will keep the
trip alive for long after we go our separate ways!
WHAT TO EXPECT:
An emphasis on photography and capitalizing on quality photo opportunities rather than maximizing the number of wildlife
species seen
Professional-quality photography instruction (for those opting in to the instructional component)
Extremely long (24-hour) daylight hours, and very long early morning and evening golden light periods
A wide variety of weather conditions
Easy to moderate (and perhaps slightly beyond) walking and/or hiking conditions (while carrying your camera gear)
3-7 participants with one leader, 8-11 with two
Weather conditions can be variable - expect overnight lows close to freezing and daytime highs that can reach 25C (80 f). It
is best to dress in layers with differing weights of insulating layers (e.g., feece and/or merino wool) with a wind and waterproof
(or water-resistant) outer protective layer. Water-resistant or waterproof lightweight hiking boots recommended. Bugs can be
an issue effective insect repellent and/or insect netting (e.g., integrated netting on hats) could enhance your enjoyment on
this trip.

YOUR ITINERARY
Day 1 - Arrival and Orientation
The tour begins in the evening in Leduc, just south of
Edmonton, Alberta, and close to the airport. We meet for
dinner at 6:30 pm for a meet-and-greet and for a brief
introduction and orientation. Night in Leduc
Day 2 - Elk Island National Park
We leave early and head towards Tofeld in the aspen parkland.
Small wetlands in this area are very productive and hold
breeding populations of Red-necked, Eared and Pied-billed
Grebes, Black Terns, Ruddy Ducks and several other species
of waterfowl, American Avocets, Wilsons Phalaropes and
Franklins Gulls. Swainsons and Red-tailed Hawks hunt over
pastures that are occupied by Richardsons ground-squirrels.
We then head to Elk Island National Park; over 200 species of
birds have been identifed in the park.
Year-round residents include Hairy and Pileated Woodpeckers
and Boreal Chickadees. Migrant and nesting passerines
include Gray Catbird, Red-eyed and Blue-headed Vireos, Le
Contes, Nelsons (Sharp-tailed) and Clay-colored Sparrows,
Northern Waterthrush and Mourning Warbler. Marshes and
ponds support a diverse array of waterbirds including White
Pelican, Trumpeter Swan and Ring-necked Duck. The park is
also home to 44 different species of mammals, including wapiti
(elk), moose, white-tailed deer, coyote, muskrat and porcupine.
The most noticeable of the parks mammalsand we are likely
to see themare the two different sub-species of Bison. North
of the park we are likely to fnd Mountain Bluebirds and Vesper
Sparrows. In mid-afternoon, we head north of Edmonton to the
edge of the boreal forest. Our target species are boreal forest
owls such as Great Gray, Northern Saw-whet and Northern
Hawk-owl. We have the possibility of Northern Goshawk. We
HIGHLIGHTS
Amazing wildlife, amid fascinating tundra and taiga habitats
Great breeding bird and fower photography opportunities
Yellow-billed Loon King Eider Sabines Gull Red Phalarope Long-tailed Jaeger Snowy Owl
Great Gray Owl Thayers Gull Pacifc Loon Muskox Arctic Fox
This very special tour takes in three different areas; exquisite
high Arctic tundra above the Arctic Circle and far north of the
treeline on the south shore of Victoria Island at Cambridge
Bay (Ikaluktutiak), where the sun never actually sets; boreal
forest and lakes around Yellowknife, NWT, on the north arm
of Great Slave Lake; and aspen parkland and potholes of
Central Alberta where Beaverhill Lake and Elk Island National
Park lie, and where we may fnd northern owls such as
Northern Hawk-Owl and Great Gray Owl.
We encounter a diverse array of birds and other wildlife on
our tour; nesting King Eiders, Sabines Gulls, Greater White-
fronted Geese, Pacifc and Yellow-billed Loons and Long-
tailed Ducks in arctic pools, breeding shorebirds such as Red
and Red-necked Phalaropes, Semipalmated, Bairds and
Stilt Sandpipers, Ruddy Turnstones, and American Golden-
Plovers on the tundra, and Long-tailed and Pomarine Jaegers
and Snowy Owls may be nesting, provided that lemmings
are in good numbers. The sight of several herds of Muskox
out on the open tundra will not be long forgotten! The area is
steeped in history and culture, from explorers searching for
the Northwest Passage, Amundsens Maud, to the Inuit of the
western Arctic. The high quality and exciting wildlife viewing
make for a long-remembered tour!

could also add to our tally of mammals with beaver and red
fox. Night in Leduc.
Days 3, 4 and 5 - Yellowknife
We leave Leduc, head to the airport and board our plane
to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. In the Yellowknife
region we explore boreal habitats in the Great Slave
Lake area, looking for specialties such as Red-necked
Grebe, Mew and Bonapartes Gulls, Rusty Blackbird,
Sandhill Crane, Northern Shrike and Bohemian Waxwing.
We should encounter several boreal forest species
such as Tennessee, Wilsons, Blackpoll and Orange-
crowned Warblers, Alder and Olive-sided Flycatchers,
Gray Jay, Lincolns and White-crowned Sparrows, and
possibly White-winged Crossbill. Lesser Yellowlegs and
Bonapartes Gulls perch on the tops of trees, and Northern
Goshawk is possible. A highlight will be a boat ride in
Yellowknife Bay, an arm of Great Slave Lake, the second
largest in Canada; weather permitting we take a boat tour
among the house boats and islands of the bay and up
the Yellowknife River, and have a chance at lake species
such as Surf Scoters, Pacifc and Common Loons, and
Common, Caspian and Arctic Terns. Nights in Yellowknife.
Day 6 - Flight to Cambridge Bay
We spend the morning birding around the Yellowknife area
before taking an afternoon fight to Cambridge Bay. We
spend the rest of the day getting our bearings about town,
noticing that the common town birds are Snow Buntings
and Lapland Longspurs - quite a change from House
Sparrows and Starlings! Night in Cambridge Bay.
Days 7-10 - Cambridge Bay
From Cambridge Bay we make daily excursions to various
birding locations around town. One day we travel by vehicle
on one of the few roads in the area to the base of Mount
Pelly, (providing the road is passable) where we should see
common bird species such as American Golden Plover,
Semipalmated, Bairds and Stilt Sandpipers, Red-necked
Phalarope, Long-tailed Jaeger, Arctic Tern, Horned Lark,
Lapland Longspur and Snow Bunting. American Pipits
breed on the slopes of the mountain. The impressive
Yellow-billed Loon breeds in this area so we will look for
nesting pairs. We should also fnd several groups of musk
ox and see Arctic foxes and Arctic hares.
On another day, we travel along the West Arm to Dease and
Simpson Straits which overlook the Northwest Passage.
Throughout the trip we hike out onto the tundra looking
for signs of those famous arctic rodents: lemmings. If their
numbers are high, we should see many of the predators
that depend on lemming populations, such as all three
species of jaegers, Snowy Owl and Rough-legged Hawk.
As well, we will enjoy the abundant waterfowl, loons and
shorebirds, perhaps with their broods. Greater White-fronted
Geese, King and Common Eiders and Long-tailed Ducks
might have fotillas of young, Pacifc Loons will be on just
about every medium-sized pond, and many shorebirds that
may include Ruddy Turnstone, Pectoral and Buff-breasted
Sandpipers will be scattered over the tundra. Our eyes
will be constantly searching the chilly frozen waters of the
Northwest Passage for ringed seals hauled up on the ice.
We drive along an inlet of Dease Strait to view the remains
of Roald Amundsens ship, the Maude. We also visit an
ancient traditional Inuit hunting site marked by stone tent
rings and seal caches on the tundra. Nearby is an area with
nesting birds such as Sabines Gull and Tundra Swans.
We will experience the beautiful fora and butterfies of the
tundra and revisit areas for a second try as well. Some
species, such as White-rumped Sandpiper and Rock
Ptarmigan, will require persistence, luck and patience. We
also visit the town dump, where Glaucous and Thayers
Gulls gather and in the past we have found Slaty-backed
and Glaucous-winged Gulls. We will have the opportunity to
get in some souvenir shopping in town. Nights in Cambridge
Bay. On Day 10, we board our plane for Yellowknife and on
to Edmonton. Last night in Leduc.
Day 11 - Departure
The tour concludes after breakfast.

conditions. As with all of our adventures, weather, sea and road conditions are a determining factor and will dictate
our itinerary.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Warm and possibly cold weather
Wonderful mammals including Muskox right outside of town
Flights from Edmonton to Yellowknife and to Victoria Island plus return included
Easy to moderate walking, short drives, comfortable vehicles
4 to 8 participants with one leader; 9 to 12 with two leaders
A two hour boat trip in Yellowknife Bay
Because Victoria Island has a relatively small road network, meals will be slotted in around bird activity and weather patterns.
We are never more than an hours drive from the Hotel. There will be no need for early morning risings as we will witness 24
hours of daylight! Bird activity often peaks at mid-day! Polar Bears are unlikely to be encountered; however we should see
Musk-Ox, Arctic Fox, Ringed Seal, Arctic Hare and lemmings. We can expect a high diversity of land and water birds during
our visit to central Alberta and the Yellowknife area.
Our daily itinerary will be responsive to weather conditions. Driving will be limited to either small or moderate stretches. Lunch
will be variable in time and location depending on the day and the level of birding. The weather can vary from a sweltering
25C to around freezing in the day, with frequent night-time frosts. It may snow, and participants should layer their clothing as
conditions can change quickly while we are in the feld. Participants should include bug repellent and perhaps a head net in
their luggage, as there will be some mosquitoes, especially in Yellowknife! Sturdy footwear that will keep your feet dry is
recommended, as we will be doing some tundra hiking. Each evening a log-call follows the evening meal. We review
the days events, birds, mammals and other observations and look forward to the next days activity.

YOUR ITINERARY
Day 1 - Arrival in Saint John
Our trip begins at 6:30 pm in our hotel lobby where we will
meet and head off to a nearby restaurant for dinner. Night in
Saint John.
Day 2 - Fundy National Park and Marys Point - Shepody
National Wildlife Area
We depart early from Saint John and visit Fundy National
Park, where well take in a couple of nature trails, looking for
boreal forest species such as Boreal Chickadee, Gray
Jay and White-winged Crossbill, and keeping a watch out
for Moose. We then head along the coastline to Marys
Point Shepody National Wildlife Area, where, during early
August, Semipalmated Sandpipers gather in the hundreds
of thousands. Even though we will be past this peak, there
will still be large numbers present. The sight of all these birds
twisting and turning in unison is an awesome spectacle. There
will almost certainly be Peregrines and Merlins attracted by
the shorebirds here. Nearby is a collection of freshwater
Birding New Brunswick & Grand Manan
This tour combines diverse bird life with beautiful panoramas
of wildfowers, picturesque fshing villages and fabulous
views of whales, including the endangered North Atlantic
Right Whale. We visit Grand Manan Island when fall
migration peaks for several groups of birds, and we could
see well over 20 species of warblers, including a good
chance for rarities like Prairie Warbler. The interior forests
support breeding populations of Black-backed Woodpecker,
Spruce Grouse, White-winged Crossbill and
Boreal Chickadee. Seabirds are diverse; along with Black
Guillemots and Northern Gannets, we are quite likely to see
Greater and Sooty Shearwaters, Razorbills, Atlantic Puffns,
Common and Arctic Terns, and Northern Fulmars, and there
is always a good chance of seeing jaegers, storm-petrels
and Black-legged Kittiwakes. We also take in the amazing
shorebird concentrations of the Bay of Fundy, renowned
for the highest tides on earth, and the sand dunes of
Kouchibouguac National Park.
dykes and marshes, edged by a nature trail, which we will
explore for other shorebirds, gulls and terns. If time permits
we will explore more of the Shepody Bay area, including the
amazing fowerpot formations of Hopewell Rocks Provincial
Park. Night in Moncton.
Days 3 - Johnsons Mills, Tantramar Marshes and
Sackville Waterfowl Park
We leave Moncton early and head to Johnsons Mills
Shorebird Reserve for some morning shorebird watching.
Even when the tide is low this remarkable area provides
excellent views of foraging sandpipers and plovers. From
here we make our way to Sackville and spend the rest of the
morning exploring the Tantramar Marshes, which border onto
neighbouring Nova Scotia, looking for marsh dwellers like
Sora and Virginia Rail, American Coot, Common Moorhen,
various waterfowl such as American Wigeon, Northern Pintail
and Lesser Scaup, plus open habitat species like Northern
Harrier, and Nelsons Sparrow. We also visit the Sackville
Waterfowl Park where a surprisingly diverse collection
of waterfowl, rails and shorebirds can be seen from the
observation tower, 2 km of boardwalk and picnic facilities. At
days end we travel north to Richibucto or St. Louis-de-Kent
to spend the night.
Day 4 - Kouchibouguac National Park
Kouchibouguac National Park is a beautiful assemblage of
seashore, salt marshes, barrier beach, boreal forests and
acid bogs. Here we will hope to catch up with the endangered
Piping Plover, which nests here. The salt marshes host
large numbers of migrating shorebirds including Short-billed
Dowitcher, Red Knot and Hudsonian Godwit and sometimes
westerners like Bairds Sandpiper. Nelsons Sparrows nest in
the marshes and Northern Gannets fsh offshore.
Further inland we search for Pileated Woodpeckers and for
focks of migrant passerines including many warbler species,
some of which nest here as well. We will investigate the Black
Spruce bogs for northerners like Black-backed Woodpecker,
Boreal Chickadee and Gray Jay. Night in Richibucto or St.
Louis-de-Kent.
Day 5 - Back to Saint John
We spend another morning in Kouchibouguac before heading
out in the early afternoon for Saint John. The drive will take
about 3.5 hours so we will make sure we arrive in time for
dinner. Night in Saint John.
Day 6 - Ferry ride to Grand Manan
We depart early in the morning for Blacks Harbour, about
90 minutes away from Saint John. We catch the 60-minute
ferry for Grand Manan at Blacks Harbour, docking at North
Head on the island. The ferry ride itself can be exciting and
very productive. Seabirds and marine mammals abound
and we spend most of the trip watching for wildlife from the
salon or on deck. Greater and Sooty Shearwaters cruise
the Grand Manan channel and we have a good chance of
seeing Manx Shearwater and, possibly, rarer species. Alcids
fush from the oceans surface as the ferry passes by, and
we look particularly for Razorbills and Atlantic Puffns. Arctic
and Common Terns are usually in sight throughout the trip.
Marine mammals can be very exciting, and with luck we could
encounter Fin, Minke, and Humpback Whales as we cross
the channel. Harbour Porpoises should be close inshore at
Blacks Harbour and at North Head. The ferry ride itself is just
one of several opportunities to see marine mammals during
the week.
Once docked, we drive the short distance to our lodge and
our home for the next three days, where we fnd friendly and
comfortable accommodation that caters to naturalists. The
lodge is renowned for its delightful meals - generous portions,
friendly service, and (naturally) an emphasis on seafood.
There is a naturalists book for entries from guests, a library
and a cheery lounge with a freplace, and a broad veranda
for just sitting outside and enjoying the view. After lunch, we
take a couple of trails close to the lodge, to the lighthouse at
Swallowtail and to Whale Cove and the pond. We look
for migrating passerines in the windblown trees
en route to the lighthouse and we
have a good chance of
WHAT TO EXPECT
Easy to moderate walking including several boardwalks
Warm days, cool nights
Cool breezes off the ocean at times
Excellent meals
Ferry ride to/from Grand Manan
Boat trip into Bay of Fundy
Includes all breakfasts and lunches
4 to 8 participants with one leader, 9 - 12 with two leaders
Our trip will involve two 3-4 hour drives on separate days
to reach prime birding destinations. Most days begin with
breakfast at 6:30 - 7:00 a.m., followed at mid-day by a
picnic lunch. When on Grand Manan Island we return to our
hotel in the afternoon to have time to relax. Our schedule
is fexible as it depends on driving times involved each day,
and it allows participants time to explore historical aspects of
the island on their own if they wish.
We explore a good portion of Grand Manan island during our
stay. On one day we take a 4-6 h pelagic trip off the south
end of the island into the Bay of Fundy. Because the island is
small and traveling distances are not great, driving times are
relatively short.
Weather in August is usually very pleasant, with warm days
and cool nights, but there is always the chance of fog. It
is a good idea to bring footwear that is waterproof. The
pelagic boat trip can be quite cool, so appropriate layered
clothing, gloves and hat are recommended. The ferries
are comfortable, with shelter and lots of seating space.
The pelagic boat trip is conducted using local fshermens
vessels, which comply with Canadian Safety Standards.
These vessels can comfortably hold 30 people with bench
seating.
Most trails and paths that we follow are moderately easy
to navigate. Participants in good health should experience
no problems with the terrain, as our pace will be leisurely.
We recommend that you bring mosquito repellent, although
mosquitoes are not usually a problem anywhere except
perhaps in sheltered trails. Each evening, the list of birds and
other wildlife will be reviewed during dinner, and plans for the
next day will be discussed.
seeing marine mammals and seabirds off the headland.
Night on Grand Manan island.
Days 7-8 - Exploring Grand Manan Island
Exploration of the islands various birding hotspots. We travel
to the northern tip of the island to visit several excellent sites.
We stop at the Whistle and Long Eddy Point, considered the
best location on the island for landbirds, before they take
off for the mainland and seabirds which forage along the rip
tides just offshore. We visit Castalia Marsh, a salt marsh that
can be very good for shorebirds, especially at high tide; 40
species of shorebirds have been reported here! We also visit
Ingalls head, Miller Pond near the islands tiny airstrip, and
Southwest Head for passerines and other boreal residents.
On one or both days we take a pelagic trip out into the
Bay of Fundy to look for seabirds and marine mammals.
These trips last 4-6 hours and are very exciting! On our
way out past the barrier islands we will hopefully encounter
Razorbills, Great Cormorants that sit amongst numerous
Double-crested Cormorants, and nesting Bald Eagles. Once
we hit the deeper waters, small focks of Red and Red-
necked Phalaropes dot the surface of the ocean, while the
frst tubenoses begin to appear as we get further out from
the barrier island.
If the weather is calm, the spray of Humpback and Fin
Whales can be seen at great distances. The large rafts of
shearwaters consisting of Greater and Sooties may contain
a few Manx Shearwaters. The occasional Northern Gannet
faps by and Atlantic Puffns appear out of nowhere with
a beak full of fsh. If we are lucky, a migrant Pomarine or
Parasitic Jaeger will be attracted to large foraging groups
of shearwaters. Graceful Wilsons Storm-Petrels dart in
and out amongst the waves, as we try to pick out a Leachs
Storm-Petrel. Arctic Terns fy by in small groups, and the frst
groups of Northern Fulmars and Black-legged Kittiwakes
coming south appear here and there. Further out in the Bay,
the largest concentrations of the endangered Northern Right
Whale in the world are in the midst of courtship displays, and
we will try to locate some of these magnifcent mammals.
Every trip fnds something different on the Bay of Fundy!
Nights on Grand Manan island.
Day 9 - Ferry Ride to Blacks Harbour and return to
Saint John
After spending the morning birding, we catch the ferry back
to the mainland (again, watching for wildlife on the crossing),
arriving in Saint John by mid-afternoon. Night in Saint John.
Day 10 - Departure
Our tour concludes after breakfast.

Quebec in Fall: Birds & Whales
Good birding and whale-watching at a fne time of the year,
the fall, when autumnal colours cover the countryside, in la
Belle Province, Quebec! Starting in historic Quebec City,
we frst visit Jacques-Cartier Park, renowned for its vistas
and beautiful fall foliage displays. The park is an area of
outstanding beauty, even more so at this season because
of the brilliant fall foliage, a photographers dream! Here
we will be introduced to birds of the boreal forest - Boreal
Chickadee, Gray Jay, kinglets with possibilites of Ruffed and
even Spruce Grouse,. Next we head down along the mighty
St Lawrence River frst to Cap-Tourmente where thousands
of Greater Snow Geese and other waterfowl have gathered
at the national wildlife area, next to the remarkable Grands-
Jardins park for boreal and tundra species. The following
day we travel along the spectacular Charlevoix landscape
on to Tadoussac and the mouth of the Saguenay River for
scoters, shorebirds and whale-watching. Whale-watching
boat rides should put us close to many whales of several
different species - Fin Whale, Minke Whale, dolphins
and porpoises, possibly Blue and Humpback Whales,
and especially Belugas. We take the ferry across the St.
Lawrence, looking for sea birds such as Common Eiders,
Northern Gannet and kittiwakes to Rivire-du-Loup, where
we make an effort to fnd Nelsons Sparrow. We make our
way back along the St Lawrence, taking in several choice
spots, and end in Quebec City.
ITINERARY
Day 1 - Arrival in Qubec City
Qubec City, a World Heritage City, is the beautiful capital of
the province of Qubec, situated on the St. Lawrence River.
It will be our base for the start of our adventure, and if time
permits well visit the historic walled Old City, frst founded
almost 400 years ago.
Night in Quebec City.
Day 2 - Parc de la Jacques-Cartier and Marais
Lon-Provancher
Our frst stop is Jacques-Cartier Provincial Park, a region of
steep-sided valleys and forested Laurentide uplands. The
autumn foliage should be peaking at this time. Well explore
several of the parks wooded trails, both the deciduous forests
of the valley foor and the coniferous forests of the uplands,
searching for late migrants and resident birds, including
Golden-crowned and Ruby-crowned Kinglets and Boreal
Chickadee.
We next visit Lon-Provancher marsh and on the way back
explore the shores of the St. Lawrence River at Cap-Rouge.
Leon-Provancher marsh and trails in neighbouring woods and
along the shoreline of the Saint-Lawrence host a great variety
of ducks, marsh birds, song birds and shorebirds. Osprey and
Peregrine Falcon occur here, and the nearshore adjacent to
the marsh and its neighbouring Dombourg islets attract many
aquatic birds including herons, sandpipers, goldeneyes and
scaup. Night in Quebec City.
Day 3 - Cap Tourmente National Wildlife Area
We spend the day exploring the varied habitats of this
important refuge; mixed-wood forests, ponds, felds, marshes
(fresh and saltwater), and the St. Lawrence River. The
highlight should be the southbound concentration of Greater
Snow Geese, with daily counts exceeding 50,000 birds,
although many other waterfowl are also expected. Its a
spectacle not to be missed. Depending on the winds there is
also the chance for songbird and raptor migration as well. We
then continue northeast along the scenic shoreline of the St.
Lawrence River to Baie-Saint-Paul, stopping wherever seems
appropriate. Night in Baie-Saint-Paul.
Day 4 - Baie-Saint-Paul to La Malbaie
Well spend part of the day in the Grand Jardins Park, looking
for Spruce Grouse, Gray Jay, Boreal Chickadee, several
boreal warblers, and White-winged Crossbills, but also many
hawks, Bald Eagle and occasionally a Golden Eagle. We then
explore the stunning coastal road between Baie-Saint-Paul
and Cap-a-lAigle, with stops at Cap-aux-Corbeaux, Cap aux
Oies, and La Malbaie. We should encounter focks of migrant
shorebirds and passerines, and well look for Common Eider
and Great Black-backed Gull along the estuary. Night in La
Malbaie.
Days 5 Travel to Tadoussac
Well explore the superb Charlevoix landscape along the road
to Tadoussac, with stops at Port au Saumon, Port au
Percil, Baie des Rochers and
Pointe-Noire, for forest, coastal and sea birds. Black Scoters
occur in these bays. Along the way, well keep an eye out
for Harbour and Gray Seals and beluga whales. Night at
Tadoussac.
Days 6 & 7 - Tadoussac area
Well spend the next two days in the Tadoussac area. The
core of our visit will be two boat trips (weather permitting)
in the Laurentian Channel offshore of the mouth of the
Saguenay Fjord, one of Canadas premier whale-watching
sites. Minke and Fin Whales are the main feature of these
whale-watching cruises but Beluga Whales are often seen as
are Harbour Porpoise. With luck, a Blue Whale, a Humpback
Whale or a pod of White-sided Dolphins could also be
seen. The conditions that attract whales are also good for
pelagic birds, and there should be numerous Black-legged
Kittiwakes, and well watch for harassing jaegers. We should
encounter Long-tailed Ducks and Red-breasted Mergansers,
as well as Red-necked Grebes. On land well explore trails in
different sections of Saguenay Provincial Park, which borders
Saguenay Fjord, the longest in eastern Canada, and itself a
Marine Park. Boreal forest predominates here, with migrant
landbirds scattered among the residents. Species lists change
each day, but well hope for Gray-cheeked Thrush, Fox
Sparrow, Gray Jay, American Pipit, and boreal fnches. Nights
in Tadoussac.
Day 8 - Cross the St. Lawrence River by ferry Saint-
Simeon Rivire du Loup
Well cross the St. Lawrence on a commercial ferry, across
the middle estuary, home of Belugas and many sea birds
including Northern Gannet. Once on the south side well
explore the extensive salt marshes at Cacouna, where there
will be a mix of migrant waterfowl and shorebirds, as well as
Nelsons Sharp-tailed Sparrows. Night in Rivire-du-Loup.
Day 9 - Travel Rivire-du-Loup to Qubec
Well spend the day investigating the
south shoreline of the St.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Most days begin with breakfast at 6:30 - 7:00 a.m., followed
at mid-day by a picnic lunch. Our schedule is fexible as it
depends on driving times involved each day. Our longest
drive will be from Riviere-du-Loup to Quebec City, a distance
of 190 km; other daily distances will be much shorter.
Weather in late September and early October is usually
pleasant, with warm days and cool nights. It is a good idea
to bring footwear that is waterproof and rubber boots for
shore and wetland areas. The whale-watching boat trips will
be quite cool, so appropriate layered clothing, gloves and
hat are recommended. The ferry is comfortable, with shelter
and lots of seating space, but plan for warmer clothing if you
want to observe from the outside decks.
Most trails and paths that we follow are moderately easy to
navigate. Participants in good health should experience no
problems with the terrain, as our pace will be leisurely. We
should not encounter signifcant numbers of mosquitos or
black fies at that time of year; however, you may wish to
bring mosquito repellent in case of an exceptionally warm
daymosquitoes or black fies are not usually a problem
anywhere except perhaps in sheltered trails. Each evening,
the list of birds and other wildlife will be reviewed during
dinner, and plans for the next day will be discussed.
