Private Dancing Grouse Roadside Viewing Tour Description

Join our experienced local birding guide for a 1 – 2 hour dancing grouse viewing tour. 

 We will guide you to a special road-side location near Saskatoon where you can view from your vehicle after sunrise the grouse dancing on the snow in fields near a public road. 

Because this group of Sharp-tailed Grouse dance very close to Saskatoon at sunrise, only a short 20 minute drive is needed from your Saskatoon downtown hotel to reach this early morning spectacle.

Many of the traditional indigenous dances were inspired by this incredibly energetic display of Saskatchewan’s provincial bird.

There is no photography blind option with this tour option.

Daily Limits: On each date, we limit the number of vehicles with people at the site on morning or evening tours to only 2 vehicles plus the leader’s vehicle at the back.
