August 29:  Wednesdays of the Great Egret at Deschênes rapids

 

An invitation of the Club des ornithologues de l’Outaouais (COO).  This weekly outing is to observe and number Great Egrets as they return for the night to their heronry and dormitory (on Conroy Island) in the Deschênes rapids. We’ll be at the belvedere along the cycle path. Your expert Rodolphe, with your help, will ensure to miss nothing about what’s going on. The rapids at sunset, these elegant white wading birds, and the other birds on the move, will give an impressive show for sure. An activity for all.

Rendez-vous :  6:00 pm at Deschênes rapids parking (south end of Vanier Road in Aylmer). We’ll stay there until around 8:30 pm. Your guide will be Rodolphe Dubois (819-685-9159). For detailed information about our activities (mostly open to everyone), contact the Club via our web site www.coo.qc.ca
