Many birds that live in the boreal and Arctic spend their winters in southern Canada. Many species of birds also stay in Canada year-round!
Help our feathered friends get through the winter in your own backyard!
1. Create a backyard feeder for the winter. Keep it stocked with nuts and seeds preferred by the birds in your local area.
2. Use iNaturalist.ca or eBird to observe the birds you see over the winter and contribute to citizen science.
3. Leave your Christmas tree in your backyard to create habitat for wildlife in the winter.
4. Share how you’re helping to do your part for birds using #MySmallAct on social media.
Discover how you can create a safe and welcoming environment for migratory birds in your own backyard!
