About the event

Field Trip: Duck, Duck, Goose (Waterfowl in Hamilton Day Trip)
Join Nature Guelph Bird Wing for a day of birding for fall waterfowl in the Hamilton area. It is a weird and wonderful waterfowl season. Hamilton is a mecca of avian activity and is particularly rich in water birds due to the close proximity of water bodies such as Hamilton Harbour, Cootes Paradise, and of course, Lake Ontario.
