Thickson’s Woods Dawn Chorus & Nature Walk
Join Ontario Nature staff and Thickson’s Woods Land Trust members at Thickson’s Woods in Whitby on Sunday, May 3rd in celebration of National Dawn Chorus Day for a special community birding experience in one of the region’s most important coastal forests.
This event will feature two sessions to suit different schedules and interests: start your day with the Dawn Chorus (5:30 am – 7:30 am), where we’ll listen and look for migratory songbirds as they fill the forest with early morning calls, OR join us later for the Morning Nature Walk and lunch (9:00 am – 12:00 pm), a relaxed hike through woodland and along the shoreline in search of spring migrants and other wildlife.
Thickson’s Woods is known for its rich biodiversity, especially during spring migration, and features relatively flat trails through forested habitat near the Lake Ontario shoreline.
