WHAT ’ S NEWS IN PETERS TOWNSHIP
CANONSBURG LAKE EAGLES HAVE ARRIVED
Bring along your camera gear and enjoy this unique experience !
Canonsburg Lake has been known for decades to residents of Southwestern PA who enjoy fishing , boating , ice skating or just as a place to observe the tranquility of nature . The lake is also a versatile resource for our region ’ s bird watchers , as the lake enjoys a wide range of species from Blue Herons to Bald Eagles . Recently , the popularity of the lake has grown because Bald Eagles have nested in one of the large pine tree along the shore line near Little Lake Theater . This unique gift is one that is attracting many visitors to the lake at a time when fund raising efforts to improve and restore the lake must escalate .
The Eagles have laid their eggs , two which have recently hatched and are being fed daily by their mother and father . The conservation officer for the lake asks that you refrain from getting too close to the eaglets that are beginning to fledge from their nest , as disturbing them could do them harm . The best location to observe the birds is from the parking lot off of McDowell Lane .
Please check out Canonsburg Lake Eagles on Facebook , where numerous photos of the Eagles have been posted . Visit savecanonsburglake . org to help preserve this community treasure for future generations .
