Dundas Valley Guided Bird Hikes

Join us in search of birds and other wildlife in the stunning Carolinian forests of the Dundas Valley. On this 3 hour hike we will search for breeding birds and the many migrant birds that pass through the valley every year. Learn about bird identification, bird calls, behaviour and all about where the birds are coming from and where they are heading to.

The hikes will be led by our resident bird expert James Lees. James has been working in bird conservation for over 24 years both in the UK and here in Canada. James is a professional bird guide and works for HCA, based in the Dundas Valley Conservation Area. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, everyone will take something away from this guided hike.
