Shorebirds & Waders at Pointe Mouillee State Game Area (Members Only)

Saturday, August 8 @ 8:00 am - 1:00 pm

Pointe Mouillee, on Lake Erie near the mouth of the Huron River is one of the premier destinations in the Midwest for viewing shorebirds and waders, but access is limited. Usually, vehicles are restricted from entering, but for this event, we will be allowed to bring in four vehicles. As a result, this trip will be limited to 20-25 attendees depending on the size of the vehicles driven. Preference will be given to current WBNA members. Membership information can be found here.

Past checklists: 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021.

Directions: Registered participants will meet at the Pointe Mouillee SGA parking lot on Sigler Road (map) at 8AM and from there will consolidate into 4 larger vehicles. Bring insect repellent, wear a hat and dress for warm weather—there is no shade or shelter at Pointe Mouillee. Bring all of the food and fluids you think you will need to sustain you for approximately five hours of birding.

We will need four larger vehicles to accommodate the group. If you have a larger vehicle and are willing to drive, please contact James Weir at .

Leaders: Matt Spoor & Juliet Berger
