Join the Nature Conservancy of Canada, Manitoba Important Bird Areas Program, and local experts for a day of bio-blitzing! Hike through beautiful sandhills as we catalogue the amazing diversity this area has to offer and search for rare and elusive species. Teams of birders will be conducting extensive surveys around Oak Lake in order to collect information on bird population levels.

All levels of expertise and ages are welcome to participate!
