About This Event
The 27th Huron Fringe Birding Festival will be held
May 23 to 26 and May 29 - June 1, 2025.
MacGregor Park could hardly be a better location for the headquarters of our Festival. Located on Lake Huron, the Park's shoreline, woods and wetlands provide an abundance of enticing habitats for birds. The surrounding Huron Fringe of land along the lake and north to the tip of the Bruce Peninsula provide a concentrated
funnel for migrating birds winging their way to their nesting destinations. Our leaders take you to local and regional hotspots, to every bird and botany-rich corner of Bruce County, including destinations throughout the world-famous Bruce Peninsula. The excitement awaits. Oooh can't wait!
