Beschrijving
Beaver Lake is located in the middle of Stanley Park in Vancouver. The lake is mainly covered in foliage and is a diverse wetland. There is a large beaver dam that can be seen. The Beaver Lake Trail is a flat, gravel, 1 km trail that goes completely around Beaver Lake. There are several spots along the trail where you can view the lake.
On the water you can observe Canada Goose, Pied-billed Grebe, Great Blue Heron, Wood Duck and other ducks. Beaver Lake is the only place in Stanley Park with hardhack, a shrub that the Common Yellowthroat loves. The lake’s cattails, sedges, grasses, and proximity to the forest also offer optimal diversity for American Goldfinch, Willow Flycatcher, Rufous Hummingbird, Anna's Hummingbird and Brown-headed Cowbird. Along the paths through the surrounding forest you can find Pileated Woodpecker, Barred Owl, Chestnut-backed Chickadee and Red-breasted Nuthatch.
