In Part 1, Sparky arrives in Churchill Manitoba in mid June for a birding and bird photography adventure. He finds a nearly frozen Hudson Bay, but fortunately the Beluga Whales have found their way to the open Churchill River. He has amazing photo opportunities with a mellow male Willow Ptarmigan, a trio of Pacific Loons, courting Common Eiders, nesting Semipalmated Plovers and even finds THREE Little Gulls! (a rare European species).
Lots of 4K video of the birds and wildlife. Stills taken with Canon R5 and Canon 100-500mmm lens.

Amazing photography with wonderful commentary. I really enjoyed both episodes. I especially enjoyed the close ups on the semipalmated Plover and the Willow Ptarmigan. Keep those fantastic wildlife adventures coming.

Part two is coming out in a few days… Finally! It is a great place but conditions can be very tough. Not really much infrastructure there for Birders. I’m often the only one around who is looking for birds. And very expensive flight from Winnipeg! But a very unique experience. Mid June is great for birds and belugas.

You flew in a week after I left. I was there June 6-11. Looks like those little gulls were in the same spot. I never saw a SEOW the whole time, but I also never saw a single mosquito. I believe I saw the first Belugas of the year as I was at Cape Merry every day and didn't see any until the last morning when I got to see them when the fog lifted. What an amazing place.

Hi sillyak, Very interesting! What were your trip highlights? Part 2 video should be done soon…stay tuned!

@Sparky Stensaas there was less open water at the Cape when I was there so the birds were a bit more concentrated. Most mornings there were a group of 100+ arctic terns feeding close together. Watching the Parasitic Jaegers rolling in from a distance and then harassing the terns was such an amazing sight.

Thanks for sharing this adventure! A dream location for sure and amazing opportunities. I just found your channel a few weeks ago and am catching up! I am out in NH so we have some similar boreal birding opportunities in the northern parts of my state and Maine as you do in northern MN.

Just great, Sparky! I wish I had known you were going. I was up there, get this, in 1968 and I’ve always wanted to go back.
@SparkyStensaas
@SparkyStensaas Год назад
Wow! What were you doing up there in 1968? What time of year was it?

It was August. I wasn’t really into birding then, but had just graduated from high school and a buddy and I took the interminable train ride up there. It was a memorable adventure. We even met old Angus MacIver and his wife Bernice. Angus had trapped that country for 50 years and we got to spend two evenings with him, listening to his stories.
