Bruce County is located on a major northern migration route, so many species of birds can be spotted year round from the northern tip of the peninsula to the farmland in the southern part of the County. Thousands of birds use the shorelines of Bruce County to navigate their migration north in the spring and south in the fall, funneling their air travel through Tobermory.
Ornithologists must check out the Bruce Peninsula Bird Observatory in Tobermory and the Annual Huron Fringefest Birding Festival at MacGregor Point Provincial Park. You can see Bald Eagles, hummingbirds, Blackthroated, Parula,Yellow-rumped and Green warblers - just to name a few.
