  1. #Vancouver #YYJ - a fab #Decolonized #Birding event coming up! Special Bird Service events are excellent #decolonization programs in the BC birding world ❤️

    Magnificent Migration: #Sandpipers Shenanigans. You'll see thousands of them!

    When: Saturday, April 25th, 2026, from 11:00 am–2:00 pm

    Where: Brunswick Point, Delta (meeting location shared closer to date)

    Target Species: #WesternSandpiper

    This gentle shoreline walk will centre sandpipers and the many winged travellers who rest and refuel at Boundary Bay on their incredible journeys. Expect communal watching, storytelling, and an appreciation of small movements—of wings, tides, and time. Whether you’re a long-time birder or just getting started, this event is grounded in care, connection, and curiosity.

    What to expect:

    • Easy walking on flat dyke trail
    • Sandpiper identification tips and shared observations
    • Inclusive, welcoming scenes for all experience levels
    • Binoculars & scopes to borrow
    • Rest breaks, snacks, and educational story-sharing

    This event is hosted on the Stolen, Traditional and Ancestral territories of the sc̓əwaθenaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsawwassen), S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), Semiahmoo, and Stz’uminus Nations.

    Who We Are

    #SpecialBirdService (SBS) creates #inclusive and restorative pathways into nature, with a focus on birding, experiential education, and community care.

    #Birding and #OutdoorEducation have historically been dominated by white, colonial norms that have excluded and marginalized Global Majority communities. We hold space intentionally to challenge those histories and to support belonging, healing, and relationship-building in nature.

    Our work is grounded in:

    Ecological stewardship
    Mental health advocacy
    Anti-racism and equity
    Generational knowledge sharing
    Community-led care and accountability

    * This event is part of Special Bird Service’s monthly #BirdingBeyondBarriers series; a collaboration with Nocs Provisions designed to make community-driven birding more #accessible with a focus on deep observation, curiosity and connection. Each walk will highlight different target species and ecosystems throughout the year. Bring your binoculars or borrow a pair from us, courtesy of our friends at Nocs Provisions, and let’s spot our feathered friends together! *

  6. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🐦🌀 If you've ever spotted a shorebird spinning in circles on the water, you might have wondered if it was okay.

    Wilson's #phalaropes actually spin to create a small vortex that sucks #invertebrates up to the surface. It's a clever way to forage for food that some say makes them look like "demented wind-up toys."

  16. Dunlin Drift

    These are dunlins (Calidris alpina). I came upon a group hunkered down in the sand—most of them sleeping, tucked into the terrain like scattered leaves. When I got too close, they stirred and took flight.

    I captured this photograph in Gulfport, Mississippi.

    Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.
