Minister Creek Trail, Part 1

For the next few episodes we’ll be exploring one of my favourite birding hikes yet — the Minister Creek Trail. I came to this trail knowing nearly nothing about it, and yet seem to have found the perfect time to explore it — in early June when the rhododendrons are blooming and birdsong is in abundance.
