Spring birding, "go find some ducks!"

Join us for a morning of spring birding in Calgary! We get some birding pointers from from the team as they seek out Common Goldeneyes, Lesser Scaups, Wood Ducks, and welcome back many of our summer songbird friends, like the classic American Robin. Check out the full list of their sightings on eBird. 

Inspired to get a new pair of binoculars or scope for your spring birding adventure? Check out the range of great products by Kowa. If it's crystal clear, it's Kowa.
