Vancouver City Parks Restoration Group

The Everett Crowley Park Committee humbly acknowledges that the work we do takes place on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Peoples.

Whether you are a new or experienced birder, join the Everett Crowley Park Committee to help contribute to vital citizen-science by engaging in bird point-counts in Everett Crowley Park. Everett Crowley Park is a hotspot for birders in Metro Vancouver and it is home to 120 species of birds including both migratory and resident species. This is a great opportunity to learn about birds, develop environmental fieldwork skills, and to contribute to long term data in Everett Crowley Park. Data collected will be used to inform future environmental restoration efforts and infrastructure.

This event is part of regular bird programming facilitated by ECPC’s Bird Team. Take a look at the Everett Crowley Park Committee’s other events to sign up for more birding opportunities.

Whether you are a new or experienced birder, join the Everett Crowley Park Committee and our experienced bird facilitators for a bird walk in Everett Crowley Park.

This is a great opportunity to learn about birds and how they are connected to the wider ecosystem. We will look and listen for the many interesting birds that live in, and visit, Everett Crowley Park. We will also discuss how the habitat of ECP supports birds, and bird conservation. This walk will also offer an opportunity to meet new people and become more familiar with Everett Crowley Park.
