Today 8 birders went to the Lighthouse Country Regional Trail between Bowser and Qualicum Bay. We walked the full loop, plus part of the Lost Runners trail, which we renamed the Lost Birders trail. The woods were quiet, but we had a very pleasant walk in a place most of us had never been to before. The following 14 species were seen or heard:
Turkey Vulture
Pileated Woodpecker
Steller’s Jay
Red-breasted Nuthatch
Brown Creeper
Pacific Wren
Golden-crowned Kinglet
Ruby-crowned Kinglet
American Robin
Spotted Towhee
Song Sparrow
White-crowned Sparrow
Western Tanager
Red Crossbill
