Description
This will be a car hike. From our meeting place, we'll make a short car pool to the Bruce Trail Parking lot on the 7th Line Mono (corner of 7th Line and Airport Road) . We'll begin by exploring the Humber Heights property and listen and watch for Bluebirds, Meadowlarks, Indigo Buntings, Field Sparrows as well as other grassland species. We'll then retrace our steps on Humber Heights and follow the main trail through Twin Waters (a new BTC property), Mathilde's Way and The Gosling Forest and Nature Reserve and finish at the car park on 5 Sideroad. With the exception of a 600 metre walk along the 7th Line, the hike will be entirely on BTC properties - four in all. Bring binoculars, camera, and cell phone. The Merlin App will help identify bird songs.
