Both novice and experienced bird watchers are welcome.
Tour may be joined in Saskatoon or at Pike Lake Park.
A loaner pair of binoculars may be available if requested.
Pike Lake was originally part of the South Saskatchewan River but became a lake when the river carved a shorter course creating this oxbow lake.
