Get to know our local feathered friends while in community outdoors. Led by biologist Rémi Torrenta\, this program will guide participants through encounters with the local birds found in Stanley Park. From the edges of Lost Lagoon through the forested trails and towards the waters of Áx̱achu7 (Beaver Lake)\, there are many spring and early summer residents that could be found\, such as warblers\, red-winged blackbirds\, flycatchers\, and more. No experience necessary\, and participants will be able to borrow binoculars from Rémi! This event is part of the Greater Vancouver Bird Celebration! \n\n\n\nThis event is reserved specifically for LGBTQ2S+ individuals\, in order to provide a safe and inclusive space to explore birding and nature. \n\n\n\nBirding with Me was made possible through the financial support of the Canadian Race Relations Foundation’s National Anti-Racism Fund. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE GREATER VANCOUVER BIRD CELEBRATION  \n\n\n\nGet more familiar with the birds around us during the Greater Vancouver Bird Celebration! Organized by a collection of non-profits\, artists\, and other institutions\, the Celebration is a two-week series of events to appreciate the bird species of Greater Vancouver. Events are open to all and most are free\, with programs including bird-related workshops\, walks\, talks\, exhibitions\, and lectures. Check out all the events here: https://vancouverbirdcelebration.ca/   \n\n\n\nLEADER BIO \n\n\n\nRémi Torrenta (he/him) is the British Columbia Projects Coordinator and Bird Biologist at Birds Canada\, and passionate about anything related to wildlife and wilderness adventures. After getting his Ph.D. in forest bird ecology in eastern Canada\, he worked as a Naturalist Guide and Bird Biologist\, before moving to the West Coast. Rémi has a strong conviction that conservation goals are better achieved through education and Citizen Science. Let’s dive into the fascinating world of birds and how to identify them! \n\n\n\nABOUT “BIRDING WITH ME” SERIES \n\n\n\nCome Birding with Me and learn about our local birds on free\, guided bird walks that celebrate diversity in bird and human communities. Inspired by the National Audubon Society’s Let’s Go Birding Together series\, Birding with Me walks welcome in experts and participants of shared identity to explore birding together and meet new people. \n\n\n\nPROGRAM DETAILS \n\n\n\nAccessibility notes: This program will move at a moderate pace around a mostly level path from Lost Lagoon through the forest to Áx̱achu7 (Beaver Lake)\, on concrete\, gravel\, and dirt trails with a few moderate inclines. If you have any questions or input about accessibility\, please email publiced@stanleyparkecology.ca    \n\n\n\nThis program will meet at the Nature House on Lost Lagoon (located near the intersection of Alberni and Chilco Street\, underneath the viewing platform). The program will end near Áx̱achu7 (Beaver Lake)\, please give yourself enough time to return if needed.  Please arrive 5 minutes early to sign in.   \n\n\n\nTerms and Conditions \n\n\n\n(1) Registration required - NO DROP-INS ARE ALLOWED.  This program is free!

Their stewardship and respect for this land has carried forward for thousands of years long before settlers named it “Stanley Park”.
