The Catchacoma Old Growth Forest is well known for its giant Eastern Hemlocks, some of which have been documented to be over 300 years old! It is also a sanctuary for bird, animal, and plant species.

Please join Stewart MacDonald, a birder with over 30 years of experience as we search for spring arrivals, which could include warblers, and other songbirds known to breed in the Kawarthas. Details of the meeting place will be given upon registration. The outing is on uneven trails and could be muddy in some places. It would be considered of moderate difficulty. Good walking shoes are recommended. Insect repellant would also be advised. The outing will be approximately 3 kms in length. Please email Stewart after May 5 at [email protected] to register. In the event of bad weather, the outing will be held on Sunday, May 22 at the same time.
