May 7, 2019 – May 16, 2019
Magee Marsh, on the south shore of Lake Erie, is a prime stopover of North American warblers. Every spring thousands of birders and photographers flock to this location to witness the spectacle of large songbird concentrations preparing to migrate across the great lake. Point Pelee national Park, situated on Lake Erie's north shroe, is one of the most important migration highways in North American and since 1918 has been preserved as a national sanctuary. It is located within the true deciduous forest region commonly called Carolininan Forest, in Canada only found on a narrow belt along Lake Erie's north shore, featuring plants and anials that are rare or absent elsewhere in Canada. The Pooiint is perfeclty situated as a migrant trap and in springtime can boast as many as 260 species, with a single-day high of 170! Trip via our luxury van from Connecticut. Leader: Matt Bell.
