Think bird watching is just a summer activity? Think again! Winter is one of the best times to grab your binoculars and head out into nature. Sure, it’s a bit chilly, but the rewards are worth it. As temperatures dip, the chances of spotting migrating birds soar.

🌲 Inland Wonders - Bundle up and explore spots like Sunnyside Acres Urban Forest, Redwood Park, Green Timbers Urban Forest, and Surrey Lake Park. Here, you can spot chickadees, bushtits, nuthatches, and even majestic raptors like eagles and owls!

🌊 Shoreline Spectacles - For migrating waterfowl, Mud Bay Park, Blackie Spit Park, and Serpentine Wildlife Management Area are absolute must-visits. Keep an eye out for massive flocks of Dunlin, Sanderling, Black-bellied Plover, Mallards, and Widgeons.

Don’t forget your camera (and maybe your mittens!) to capture these incredible moments. Winter bird watching in Surrey is the perfect way to embrace the season and reconnect with nature.
