It was another amazing owl night. We are getting close to wrapping up the season. A record year for breeding owls in Weyerhaeuser and West Fraser’s FMAs!

Another great Owling night! West Fraser is loaded with owls around Hinton this year. Had five species and 16 individuals on 10 stations! Stopped at another spot to listen and heard three more owls. Listen carefully for the great gray owl.

Always enjoy leading the Owl Prowls at Strathcona Wilderness Center. I remember watching Ray Cromie present there. Great group tonight and the horned owl impressed everyone.

🙌We are excited to announce the 2026 Snow Goose Festival to celebrate the spring migration of snow geese through Beaverhill Lake near Tofield Alberta.

🦆Everyone is welcome - from first-time to experienced birders, children, and adults to experience the wonder of nature as thousands of migrating snow geese, Canada geese, various shorebirds, cranes, and swans return to Beaverhill Lake on their migratory route to the north!

🪿The festival includes several guided hiking and bus tours scheduled for each day, a free Trade Show in the Tofield Arena with kids crafts and activities, concessions, speakers, a Saturday Banquet & Silent Auction, and more!
