Saskatchewan Birding Grand Tour: June 12 – 23, 2025

Join the Spring Birding Tour to Saskatchewan, Canada during the peak of the nesting season when bird song abounds. Saskatchewan is located near the centre of North America where several bird migration flyways meet. Consequently, this bird-rich province of Canada is home to nesting birds from both eastern and western North America.

Saskatchewan is well known as the duck factory of North America because most species of waterfowl nest in our abundant wetlands.  Many shorebirds, pelicans, rails and grebes also nest in our lakes and sloughs. With the tour, you will visit many hotspots for water birds including Last Mountain Lake and Redberry Lake Bird Sanctuaries plus Chaplin and Reed Lakes Important Bird Areas.

Stretching across half of the province, the boreal forest is home to many eastern warblers, woodpeckers, flycatchers and forest hawks. You will explore these forest birds at Saskatchewan’s Duck Mountain Provincial Park and in the Nisbet Forest.

During this Canada – SW Saskatchewan Birding Tour, you can expect to observe over 150 species.

A few special birds include

  • Ruddy Duck
  • Sharp-tailed Grouse
  • Gray Partridge
  • Western Grebe
  • Clark’s Grebe
  • American White Pelican
