    Marsh, Forest, Flight – A Life of the Boreal Guided Bird Walk
    6-7:30pm, Gazebo in Chasàn Chùa (McIntyre Creek)

    Join CPAWS Yukon and the Yukon Bird Club for a guided walk at Chasàn Chùa (McIntyre Creek). We’ll be looking in the creek and marshes, and walk through the adjacent forest to spot everything from flycatchers to swallows to warblers! We will also be discussing the process for a protected Chasàn Chùa, and how you can advocate for the birds and many other species in the area. The walk will be led by a Yukon Bird Club board member and will not be strenuous. More details at marshforestflight.eventbrite.com

    Meet at the gazebo along the Copper Haul Road, off Fish Lake Road. Google maps link: maps.app.goo.gl/FPJ8deQQZfNM4UFq8
