SAN JUAN ISLANDS BIRDWATCHING TOURS

 

San Juan Islands Birdwatching Tours swansSan Juan Islands Birdwatching Tours take you around Skagit Valley’s farm fields and the Fir Island Farm Snow Goose Reserve in search of the thousands of snow geese & smaller flocks of tundra and trumpeter swans.  They move from field to field throughout the day and from day to day.

Be prepared to listen to the cackling cacophony of  the highly gregarious geese, the honking of the swans and the unmistakable bald eagle call and the peeping of the shorebirds.  Watch the birds’ feeding behaviors.
