**Sunday Special, Only $99 for a Fantastic Day Out!** Hi Bird Lovers, Come join us for a wonderful spring birding adventure north of Barrie as we explore some of Ontario’s most exciting birding areas, including Minesing Wetlands, Tiny Marsh, and the Barrie waterfront at Kempenfelt Bay. Spring is one of the most exciting times of year to be out birding. Migration is getting underway, birds are on the move, and every stop can bring something new. Millions of birds are heading north at this time of year, and places like Minesing Wetlands and the surrounding marshes are important resting and feeding areas along the way. It is a fantastic time to be out in nature, and you never know what might turn up. We’ll be looking for a great variety of birds throughout the day. Birds of prey are always a highlight, and we will have a good chance for Bald Eagles along with several hawk species. Eastern Bluebirds are another special bird we’ll be hoping to find. In the marshes and wetlands, we’ll be watching for ducks, geese, herons, and Sandhill Cranes, along with other early spring arrivals. We’ll also be listening for the songs of returning birds and watching the woods carefully for woodpeckers and other songbirds. Downy, Hairy, and Pileated Woodpeckers are all possible, along with Northern Flickers and Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers. Depending on the day, there is always the chance of a few nice surprises too, which is part of what makes spring birding so much fun. This outing is perfect whether you are an experienced birder or just getting started. It will be a relaxed, friendly day out with lots of great birding, beautiful scenery, and plenty of help with bird identification along the way. I always enjoy sharing the birds and the excitement of the season with a small group, and this should be a really enjoyable day. **The Itinerary** We depart from Finch Station Subway Station at **9:00 a.m. sharp**. We return to Toronto at approximately **5:00 p.m.** **Transportation is provided from Finch Station.** **Important Details** I can take up to **5 guests** in my vehicle.

Spring Fling A Private Tantar circle Community Gathering Spring is here — and it’s time to shake off the winter layers. Spring Fling is a playful, invitation-only gathering to welcome the season of warmth, curiosity, and embodied aliveness. A day to shed our cloaks, stretch into pleasure, flirt with possibility, and let ourselves frolic a little. This is a celebration of Eros in all its energies — sensual, creative, relational, mischievous, and alive. Not rushed. Not goal-oriented. Just an open field for play, presence, and connection. Spring Fling is for those who enjoy conscious erotic energy held with care, consent, and a sense of humor. Come curious. Come playful. Come exactly as you are. If spring is tugging at you — inviting you to move, connect, and feel more alive — we’d love to have you. RSVP. There are 20 spots available. This is an event in Toronto I have not yet decided which spot. This is a donation not a potluck.

Join us on our Return of the Swans and Cranes tour. We have done this annual day trip many times over the years, and it's always been a favourite as you are literally guaranteed thousands of birds! As winter fades and the landscape awakens, spring offers the perfect opportunity to reconnect with nature and witness one of the season’s most spectacular migrations, the Return of the Swans and the Cranes! The familiar songs of American Robins are back, the unmistakable calls of Red-winged Blackbirds echo through the marshes, and the soaring Red-tailed Hawks and Bald Eagles signal the changing season. But beyond these familiar sights lies a hidden gem of migration, the majestic journey of thousands of Tundra Swans and Sandhill Cranes through southwestern Ontario. It's an incredible sight to see them they fill the skies around us as we look on in awe. Join us on an unforgettable adventure to the Aylmer Wildlife Management Area, where volunteers spread corn to attract these elegant white swans during their long migration to the northern tundra of Canada. This is one of the best locations to observe large flocks of Tundra Swans up close, set against a backdrop of early spring landscapes. One of the highlights of this trip is the breathtaking display of Sandhill Cranes, watch as these ancient birds engage in their intricate courtship dances, filling the air with their deep, resonant calls that seem to echo from another time. Our expedition will also take us to the renowned Long Point area, a world-famous birding hotspot. Past outings have given us spectacular views of: Thousands of Tundra Swans and Sandhill Cranes, resting in marshes and fields Bald Eagles soaring in search of prey An unbelievable variety of colorful ducks, drawn to the rich wetlands of Long Point. With luck, we’ll witness the sky come alive with hundreds, if not thousands of Sandhill Cranes and Tundra Swans. Whether they’re flying overhead, resting on open water, or feeding in nearby fields, this is a wildlife event like no other. Prime viewing locations are carefully selected for the best sightings Expert guidance Frequent stops for photography, observation, and a break for lunch (bring your own) or we stop at Tim Hortons.
