#Vancouver #YYJ - a fab #Decolonized #Birding event coming up! Special Bird Service events are excellent #decolonization programs in the BC birding world ❤️

Magnificent Migration: #Sandpipers Shenanigans. You'll see thousands of them!

When: Saturday, April 25th, 2026, from 11:00 am–2:00 pm

Where: Brunswick Point, Delta (meeting location shared closer to date)

Target Species: #WesternSandpiper

This gentle shoreline walk will centre sandpipers and the many winged travellers who rest and refuel at Boundary Bay on their incredible journeys. Expect communal watching, storytelling, and an appreciation of small movements—of wings, tides, and time. Whether you’re a long-time birder or just getting started, this event is grounded in care, connection, and curiosity.

What to expect:

• Easy walking on flat dyke trail
• Sandpiper identification tips and shared observations
• Inclusive, welcoming scenes for all experience levels
• Binoculars & scopes to borrow
• Rest breaks, snacks, and educational story-sharing

This event is hosted on the Stolen, Traditional and Ancestral territories of the sc̓əwaθenaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsawwassen), S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), Semiahmoo, and Stz’uminus Nations.

Who We Are

#SpecialBirdService (SBS) creates #inclusive and restorative pathways into nature, with a focus on birding, experiential education, and community care.

#Birding and #OutdoorEducation have historically been dominated by white, colonial norms that have excluded and marginalized Global Majority communities. We hold space intentionally to challenge those histories and to support belonging, healing, and relationship-building in nature.

Our work is grounded in:

Ecological stewardship
Mental health advocacy
Anti-racism and equity
Generational knowledge sharing
Community-led care and accountability

* This event is part of Special Bird Service’s monthly #BirdingBeyondBarriers series; a collaboration with Nocs Provisions designed to make community-driven birding more #accessible with a focus on deep observation, curiosity and connection. Each walk will highlight different target species and ecosystems throughout the year. Bring your binoculars or borrow a pair from us, courtesy of our friends at Nocs Provisions, and let’s spot our feathered friends together! *

Migratory Magnificence : #Camas Meadow Medley.

Join #SNEMITIYE Dominque James & #SpecialBirdService for a springtime Camas Meadow Medley at #CattlePoint and #UplandsPark.

Early April marks one of the most vibrant seasonal shifts on southern Vancouver Island. Camas meadows begin to wake, early wildflowers emerge, and the sharp metallic buzz of Rufous Hummingbirds returns to the landscape.

These small but fierce migrants travel thousands of kilometres each year, arriving along the coast just as nectar sources begin to bloom. Their presence signals the true beginning of spring.

Together we will explore the Garry oak ecosystem and coastal meadows of Uplands Park, learning how to notice hummingbird behaviour, listen for territorial calls, and observe feeding patterns among early blossoms.

This is not a fast-paced checklist focused walk. It’s an opportunity to slow down and tune into the rhythms of spring migration.

Open to all who agree to abide by the Cormorant's Creed. No birding experience required.
