Birding at Burnaby Lake

There’s always lots of action at Piper Spit on Burnaby Lake. And lots of people out enjoying the sunshine.

dead pine siskin burnaby lake bc
Unfortunately we found another dead Pine Siskin. Samonellosis is spreading among these cute wee birds. Yumi picked it up using some sticks so as not to touch it, and buried it, hopefully to help contain the spread.
