Located in the middle of the city, Burnaby Lake Regional Park is a stunning wildlife sanctuary with excellent bird-watching opportunities. Look for great blue herons, bald eagles, belted kingfishers and osprey – you might even spot rarer birds such as the green-backed heron. There’s even a viewing tower that provides a bird's eye view for spotting wildlife.

Centrally located in the heart of Burnaby, Deer Lake Park offers seemingly endless wildlife-viewing opportunities in the lake, forest, meadow and marsh areas. Binoculars in-hand, bird-watchers will be especially thrilled with the array of birds in the park.
