Fall Birding in Halifax, Canada ~ Halifax Regional Municipality, Canada | 1 days

Fall and winter are chilly in Nova Scotia, but this is a time to see behavior and species that you won't see otherwise. Be tough: get up early, don thermal underwear and go. The day starts at a crow roost at Mount Saint Vincent University (MSVU) on the Bedford Highway (Route 2). Be there an hour before dawn.

From MSVU, follow the Bedford Highway away from Halifax, stopping at locations along the shore to see sea birds: Herring and Ring-Billed Gulls are here all year; Glaucous and Iceland Gulls visit in fall. You’ll see Mallard and Black Ducks, and possibly scaups, mergansers, and goldeneyes.

ACTIVITIES/ATTRACTIONS: Bird-Watching
SEASON: Itinerary based on late fall.
