Field Trips and Special Events
Nature PEI offers Field Trips several times a year for nature enthusiasts of all ages and experience, and participates in major endeavours, such as the Christmas Bird Count, which happened in four locations around the holidays. Results will be in a future Island Naturalist newsletter. February brings the Great Backyard Bird Count, February 13-16, and it's as easy as watching your feeder for 15 minutes! More details on our News Page and in the Calendar of Events.
