YOUR ITINERARY
Day 1 Arrival and Orientation
The tour begins with arrival in Toronto. Night in Toronto.
Day 2: Carden Plain
We depart early in the morning for Algonquin Park. During the
day we stop at Carden Plain, which is an open area of thin
soils on limestone bedrock and poor agricultural potential,
called an alvar. Because of this neglect, much of the area
is old field, supporting an abundance of birds like upland
sandpiper, eastern bluebird, golden-winged warbler, bobolink,
eastern meadowlark, grasshopper, vesper, field, savannah and
possibly clay-coloured sparrows, as well as eastern kingbird,
and loggerhead shrike. The shrike is the Carden Plains
most famous inhabitant, as there are only a handful of sites
in northeastern North America that support this endangered
subspecies. We also visit wetlands of the area to see black
