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.
