John Stott Birding Day 2025 (Cedar Haven)

Saturday, May 10th is John Stott Memorial Birding Day! On this day, we celebrate a great friend and supporter of A Rocha, John Stott. John is remembered as a theologian, pastor and avid birdwatcher. So to honour his legacy, we are welcoming all to join us for a morning of recreational birding at the Cedar Haven Eco-Centre!

To ensure that everyone, regardless of experience level, is able to participate in and enjoy this day to the fullest, we are offering 2 sessions for this event: the Early Bird(er) and the Flock. Each session will be roughly 2 hours long.

• The Early Bird(er) session, led by our Conservation Coordinator (Jeremy Petrusma), will begin at 7:30am and is designed for experienced birders. This session will feature a quieter, guided bird walk around the property that will allow for more focused and peaceful observation of the birds onsite.
• The Flock session, led by our Environmental Education Coordinator (Amy Donais), will begin at 9am and is designed for new birders and families. This session will be very beginner-friendly! It will begin with an orientation to birding including learning how to use field guides and learning about birding etiquette. This session will also include a guided bird walk and other optional activities for children and families.

This event is open to adults and families. Please note that all children must be accompanied by an adult.

Register FOR FREE below! Be sure to select the ticket that corresponds with your preferred session: Early Bird(er) or the Flock.
