Quebec
Quebec is one of the thirteen provinces and territories of Canada. It is the largest province by area being three times the size of France or Texas covering well over one and half million square kilometres (nearly 600,000 square miles). It is the second-largest by population with over nine million inhabitants. Much of the population lives in urban areas along the St. Lawrence River, between its most populous city, Montreal (over 4,340,000 people), and the provincial capital and second in size, Quebec City (700,000 people). The combination of rich soils and the lowlands’ relatively warm climate makes this valley the most prolific agricultural area of Quebec. The rural part of the landscape is divided into narrow rectangular tracts of land that extend from the river and date back to the seigneurial system. Located in Central Canada, the province shares land borders with Ontario to the west, Newfoundland and Labrador to the northeast, New Brunswick to the southeast, and a coastal border with Nunavut; in the south it borders the United States.
Quebec’s topography is very different from one region to another due to the varying composition of the ground, the climate and proximity to water. More than 95% of Quebec’s territory, including the Labrador Peninsula, lies within the Canadian Shield. It is generally a quite flat and exposed mountainous terrain interspersed with higher points such as the Laurentian Mountains in southern Quebec, the Otish Mountains in central Quebec and the Torngat Mountains near Ungava Bay. While low and medium altitude peaks extend from western Quebec to the far north, high altitudes mountains emerge in the Capitale-Nationale region to the extreme east. Quebec’s highest point at 1,652 metres (5,420 ft) is Mont d’Iberville (Mount Caubvick). In the Labrador Peninsula portion of the Shield, the far northern region of Nunavik includes the Ungava Peninsula and consists of flat Arctic tundra. Further south is the Eastern Canadian Shield taiga ecoregion and the Central Canadian Shield forests. The Appalachian region has a narrow strip of ancient mountains along the southeastern border of Quebec.

Quebec has one of the world’s largest reserves of fresh water, covering 12% of its surface and representing 3% of the world’s renewable fresh water. More than half a million lakes and 4,500 rivers empty into the Atlantic Ocean, through the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the Arctic Ocean, by James, Hudson, and Ungava bays. The largest inland body of water is the Caniapiscau Reservoir; Lake Mistassini is the largest natural lake. The Saint Lawrence River has some of the world’s largest sustaining inland Atlantic ports. The Saint Lawrence Seaway provides a navigable link between the Atlantic Ocean and the Great Lakes.
The public lands of Quebec cover approximately 92% of its territory, including almost all of the bodies of water. Protected areas can be classified into about twenty different legal designations (such as exceptional forest ecosystem, protected marine environment, national park, biodiversity reserve, wildlife reserve, zone d’exploitation contrôlée (ZEC), etc.). More than 2,500 sites are protected areas covering almost 10% of the province.
In general, the climate of Quebec is cold and humid, with variations determined by latitude, maritime and elevation influences. Because of the influence of both storm systems from the core of North America and the Atlantic Ocean, precipitation is abundant throughout the year, with most areas receiving more than 1,000 mm (39 in) of precipitation, including over 300 cm (120 in) of snow in many areas. During the summer, severe weather patterns (such as tornadoes and severe thunderstorms) occur occasionally.
The total forest area of Quebec is estimated at 750,000 km2 (290,000 square miles). From the Abitibi-Témiscamingue to the North Shore, the forest is composed primarily of conifers such as jack pine, white spruce, black spruce and tamarack. The forest of the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence Lowlands is mostly composed of deciduous species such as sugar maple, red maple, white ash, American beech, butternut (white walnut), American elm, basswood, bitternut hickory and northern red oak as well as some conifers such as the eastern white pine and northern white cedar. The distribution areas of paper birch, trembling aspen and mountain ash cover more than half of Quebec’s territory.
Large land wildlife includes white-tailed deer, moose, muskox, caribou (reindeer), American black bear and polar bear. Medium-sized mammals include cougar, coyote, eastern wolf, bobcat, Arctic fox, etc. Small mammals seen most commonly include eastern grey squirrel, snowshoe hare, groundhog, skunk, raccoon, chipmunk and Canadian beaver.
Birding Quebec
Quebec, the francophone outpost of eastern North America, is a venue all birders should visit some time in their birding careers. With the easily accessible major cities of Montreal and Quebec situated along the St. Lawrence river and right beneath one of the major continental migration routes a huge number of the eastern north American species either nest here or else pass through in the spring or autumn migration periods. Montreal itself is the centre of a thriving population of birders with a number of world class reserves in the area – including several UNESCO Ramsar sites.
The western tip of Montreal island, which contains the Morgan Arboretum, is a favoured route for migrating raptors which come this way by the tens of thousands when crossing the river valley. The Mount Royal, a huge park in the centre of Montreal, is warbler-central in mid to late May with many thousands of birds stopping for R&R and to flaunt themselves to the visiting birders.

Visitors are recommended to get in touch with the main birding group in Quebec for information and possibly to find field trips they join or the name of someone who is willing to show them around.
Among the birds commonly seen in the southern part of Quebec are warblers and swallows, jays and blackbirds, birds of prey like golden eagle, peregrine falcon, snowy owl and bald eagle. Sea and semi-aquatic birds seen in Quebec include geese, cormorants, cranes, gulls and divers.
