Wild Raptor Tour

Join Stan Shadick and other fellow raptor enthusiasts for a 3 hour driving tour in search of wild raptors near Saskatoon.

We may find Bald Eagles, Swainson’s Hawks, Turkey Vultures, Northern Harriers, Kestrels and Merlins. We might also find a rare Peregrine Falcon.

We should also encounter several Red-tailed Hawks, a buteo that breeds in well-treed areas surrounding Saskatoon. Individuals in this species occur with a wide variety of plumages. Although most birds have reddish tails, some have brown tails and some have mainly white tails. Most have light coloured bellies but we might see some dark morphs with very dark bellies.
