This Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas Square Bash is an event that brings volunteers together to camp and atlas over a few days, with a goal of covering key gaps in Atlas coverage. Meet and camp at Cedar Rail Family Campground. Free park access and camping is provided to registered participants. Participants will camp in the park, and will be birding on their own or in small groups each day, covering squares near the park. The local area offers some of the richest grassland bird habitat in southwestern Ontario and has an amazing diversity of forest birds as well. If species like Golden-winged Warbler and Upland Sandpiper are high on your list, then this one is for you.

We chose this location because it is strategically located between southern Bruce and Grey Atlas Regions where some coverage gaps exist.
