Snowy Owl

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

04/09/25 • 21 min

The Snowy Owl is a bird unlike no other in Alberta. Known for both its unequalled cuteness and rawness in tooth and claw, but there is something else that makes them a singular focus for us birders and non-birders alike during the Alberta winter. Snowy Owls have become a symbol that acts as our antidote to the gravity of winter.

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

American Robins are the Spark bird that ignites within us an acknowledgement of the natural world around us and provides an intimacy that simmers within us a love of nature.

Horned Lark

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

03/28/24 • 11 min

Horned Larks are Alberta's ultimate minimalists, content to make their livings in our most barren landscapes. But in return, they provide plenty of thrilling encounters and stick it out when most other birds are living the tropical dream.

Canada Jay

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

10/21/24 • 26 min

Canada Jays are perfectly Canadian. Low key, soft spoken, resilient and enduring. They are a companion with whom we share a landscape and they serve as a symbol to ourselves.

They are a much-talked about survivor that plays by the rules of the bush and they win by always being up to something – even if it means getting the best of us every now and then. All of this makes the Canada Jay one of the most perfect - Birds of Alberta.

White-throated Sparrow

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

04/08/24 • 14 min

The white-throated sparrow has a singing voice as iconic to Canada as Gordon Lightfoot. But in spite of its acoustic imprint onto our lives, there remains quite a few mysteries involving the "Canada-Canada-Canada" bird including whether it might be now singing a new tune altogether.

Peregrine Falcon

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

04/18/24 • 22 min

The Peregrine Falcon was a symbol of the conservation movement of the 1980s and since that time - and through its hard won recovery, it became a symbol of much else. No bird shows as much self-confidence in its all out mastery of air but the story of how Albertans rallied to its cause has made it one of the most legendary and inspiring Birds of Alberta.

Snow Goose

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

10/13/24 • 20 min

Snow Geese are exceptional birds in Alberta and those of us lucky enough to experience their erratic cacophony will long remember their snowy, showy spectacle that is unmatched by any of our other Birds of Alberta.

Sharp-tailed Grouse

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher

04/05/24 • 16 min

In Alberta, the first true colours of spring are purple and yellow. These are the colours that flowering prairie crocus display when they emerge from still-frozen soils but they are also worn by Sharp-tailed Grouse showing swollen purple neck sacs and Ru Paul-level yellow eyebrows as they dance among our first spring flowers.
