Hi Everyone,

I wanted to let everyone know that there have been improvements to the Second Lake Provincial Park.   This park is in the community of Lower Sackville which is a suburb of Halifax.   Lower Sackville has a population of 20,000 plus.   A large parking area with signage is now on First Lake Drive.  Look for the entrance to the lot between Cobequid Road and the Eddie Leblanc Memorial field.

I’ve submitted this Provincial Park as a proposed E-bird Hotspot.   I think it qualifies as it passes all the criteria.   Large populated area,  a large variety of breeding birds and a lake with plenty of winter bird activity.   I don’t believe we have large numbers of “lists” being entered for this location yet.   However, I’ve seen impressive lists entered in the spring for this spot and I know people would use the hotspot.  

Chris Peters
