Birding Manitoulin Island for a NEW LIFER!

Time to look for some birds up north! Our destination is Manitoulin Island - The World's largest freshwater island. (Full details below ⬇️) We drive a few hours north in the hopes of finding a bird we've never seen before. The Sharp-tailed Grouse is a lifer and Manitoulin Island is one of the few accessible places it can reliably be found. ⭐ Join The Hide - Our Membership for Friends of the Channel 📖 Exclusive blog posts & behind-the-scenes stories 🎥 Members-only videos 🎁 Surprise gifts by post 🔒 Premium content in The Hide on our website 🫶 Support the channel & help us keep making videos ✍️ Become a Friend of the Channel: https://buymeacoffee.com/brithikeson/...
