The Mill Race Trail, St Jacobs

The Mill Race Trail is an easy walk, for the most part on flat level ground. You will be able to feed Black-capped Chickadees from the hand, with a very good chance that White-breasted Nuthatches will join them. We often see three species of woodpecker, Rusty Blackbirds are possible in mid/late October, a variety of sparrows are usually present, Brown Creeper is often seen, and there is always the possibility of Muskrat and American Mink. Common Mergansers often patrol the Conestogo River. At the half way point we will go to the Eco Café where hot coffee, muffins, scones and warm, clean washrooms are available.

Registration is required. Non members are welcome but they will need to sign an insurance waiver.

Dress according to the weather, bring your binoculars, snacks if you think you need them, and lots of enthusiasm.
