Description

This combined walking and driving field trip will start at the end of Semiahmoo Spit near the Plover Dock where we’ll scan the channel between Semiahmoo and White Rock, B.C. for loons, grebes, scoters, long-tailed ducks and a wide variety of other wintering water birds. We’ll then walk along the shoreline trail before driving back to the park buildings for a further look at Drayton Harbor and Semiahmoo Bay. Next (for those who haven’t had enough!), we’ll drive to Marine Park in Blaine and walk along the waterfront in search of other new or familiar species. Bring a spotting scope if you have one and snacks or a lunch. And come prepared for rain, wind, and/or sun!
