Ce sont des températures exceptionnellement chaudes qui nous attendent dès cette fin de semaine, et avec, les premiers migrateurs !

It is with joy that we unveil the new website of the Tadoussac Bird Observatory.

This year’s Winter Finch Forecast will be a mosaic of movements differing in intensity and area across the species.
