Field Trip Schedules
Please arrive 15 minutes before departure and bring a packed lunch for the full day trips.
Trip leaders are knowledgeable and mostly local birders. Car pooling from the meeting place is encouraged. Note that the field trip scheduled may be adjusted.
After a fun day of birding, registrants are invited to gather at the West Ferris Legion, 30 Legion Rd., R.R. #5, North Bay, which will be open at 5:00 pm for beverages and socializing. Dinner will be held at this location as well and is being catered by the Legion Ladies’ Auxiliary. We will have a table set up for people to sell/give away used books and optics. Supper will be served at 6, followed by the evening program to be live-streamed from the main convention in Leamington.
