Saskatoon Area Birds - A Seasonal Checklist
This checklist contains 331 avian species reported in the Saskatoon, Saskatchewan district to October 2018 (4 species are extirpated) and an additional 26 hypothetical species. The area covered extends from 51° 30’ to 52° 30’ in latitude and 106° 00’ to 107° 30’ in longitude. The checklist was primarily compiled from records published in Birds of the Saskatoon Area (2002) and is maintained by the records committee of the Saskatoon Nature Society.

Checklist of Dragonflies and Damselflies in the Saskatoon Area
A checklist of 51 dragonflies and damselflies found in the Saskatoon Birding Area was prepared by Craig Salisbury and Lorne Duczek, with the goal of encouraging local naturalists to add the study and enjoyment of the insect order Odonata to the scope of their wildlife interests. See map in the Saskatoon Area Birds - A Seasonal Checklist map for boundaries (a link to this document is listed above).

The EcoBlitz also provided an educational experience and demonstrated opportunities for quality on-location teaching and learning. The final report from the 2011 NE Swale EcoBlitz is now available for download
Saskatoon Area Butterflies - Updated for 2020
This checklist was compiled by Craig Salisbury, Anna Leighton and Mike Gollop, and contains 82 species of butterflies known to be present in the Saskatoon Birding Area (see Saskatoon Area Birds - A Seasonal Checklist map for area boundaries).
