Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher - Peregrine Falcon

Peregrine Falcon

Birds of Alberta with Chris Fisher
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.

undefined - Canvasback

Canvasback

Our wetlands host mesmerizing crowds of life that mingle and mix and that fight and flux. But among those bobbing birds, there is a standout without equal – an Emperor that rises high above the rest of its waterfowl court. It rules these waters crowned in ruby splendour and is even elegantly draped in a pristine white toga.

The Canvasback is a Cesar and the rest of the birds are simple waterfowl.

Song Sparrow

The Song Sparrow is perfectly named, having a tune that tops the charts on Alberta summer soundtrack every May. And even though most Albertan know nothing of the singer, they know that the song means that spring is here again and so too is one of the most musical of our Birds of Alberta.
