Day 183: Toronto: It’s Warmer Than The Arctic

by Thomas Cook on March 4, 2011


Things to do at the Toronto Waterfront

This weekend is expected to be very mild in Toronto, especially at Tommy Thompson Park.

While many Canadians might flock to the south over winter to stay warm, several species of arctic birds actually fly to the Toronto’s man-made peninsula for the very same reason.

The Winter Waterfowl event at Tommy Thompson park is a look at some of the different types of waterfowl that migrate to the Greater Toronto Area every year to enjoy a warmer winter than they’re generally used to up North. Get a chance to see interesting birds, drink some hot chocolate (bring a travel mug!), don’t forget your binoculars and realize that Toronto isn’t that cold.

This event is free, but participants are asked to register here.
