Saskatchewan is a birder's paradise with its diversity of habitats and its central location that situates itself within multiple migration flyways. Avid birder Stan Shadick has over 40 years of experience guiding bird tours in Saskatchewan.
Based out of the central location of Saskatoon, Stan’s tours are available through Saskatoon Custom Bird Tours and venture to some of the province’s best birding hot spots.
During the fall Stan offers the incredible opportunity to view North America's tallest bird, the whooping crane. These birds were near extinction in the 1940s with only a few dozen left in the wild. With a strong conservation effort, their population is now just over 800 birds. The wetlands of Saskatchewan provide a vital staging ground for this endangered species and give the seasoned birder a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view the awe-inspiring bird.
Another stand-out tour is offered in the spring when Saskatchewan's provincial bird, the sharp-tailed grouse performs their courtship dance at sunrise.

The Saskatchewan Fish Hatchery is the only aquaculture facility in Saskatchewan producing and stocking fish into public waters to support angling across the province. Established in 1915 along Echo Lake near Fort Qu’Appelle, the facility has been operating to support Saskatchewan’s recreational fishery for over a century.
The annual fish stocking plans are developed by provincial fisheries biologists from Saskatchewan’s Ministry of Environment. Up to 150 waters across Saskatchewan receive hatchery-produced fish each year.

The Saskatchewan Highland Gathering & Celtic Festival incorporates older Highland Games events in Regina and Moose Jaw that have been running since the early 20th century! We promote all things Scottish and Celtic and provide an excellent opportunity for members of the local and neighbouring communities to get involved and showcase their talents and promote their wares. Pipers, drummers, dancers, heavy events athletes, and enthusiasts from all over Western Canada come to southern Saskatchewan each year on the May long weekend to participate in this exciting line-up of events.
Each year, we join with the Regina Hotels Association and other sponsors to make the weekend bigger and more spectacular than ever, with more events, more for everyone to do, and more great reasons to stay in Regina while taking in the weekend events!
In true Scottish hospitality, the Gathering provides a friendly environment for members of the public to come and watch the various events taking place including the piping and drumming, highland dancing, heavy events, and the very popular festival tent. After watching your favourite event, take a stroll through our Celtic market and pick-up something uniquely Scottish like a clan badge, sporran, sgian dubh (skeen doo - black dagger) or even a kilt! Food and refreshments are available all weekend and you’re sure to have a fabulous day at the Games!
Bring the whole family! On a sunny day, nothing beats relaxing in a lawn chair or lying on a blanket, listening to the sounds of Scotland!

The Satellite Applications Catapult is working on a number of applications and research projects within the agri-tech industry, and exploring exploring new, innovative satellite capabilities for the industry.
Satellites are enabling users across the ‘farm-to-fork’ supply chain to observe, measure, and monitor crop performance right across the growing season. This information enables users to respond more quickly to provide nutrients where needed and to counter the impacts of adverse weather, pests, and disease, essential to ensure yields are maximized.

Soil is one of the earth’s most important natural resources. Healthy soils are essential for healthy plant growth, human nutrition, and water filtration. Healthy soil supports a landscape that is more resilient to the impacts of drought, flood, or fire. Soil helps to regulate the Earth's climate and stores more carbon than all of the world's forests combined.
