During the fall and spring migration we see THOUSANDS of Canada geese visiting Lake Sundance. Sadly, that is just too much of a good thing. That many Canada Geese have had a negative impact on the park and to human health and safety.
This year we are trying out a goose deterrent system. It is a temporary installation of flashing lights intended to specifically target the field of vision of the Canada geese. The Canada geese see these lights as predators eyes and don't linger at the lake as a result.
The intention is to deter enough geese that large amounts of goose feces on the shore and water will not lead to high levels of E.coli or algal blooms in the water. We are also aiming for less poop in the ice for skating and hockey. If the lights work, the system will be back out in the spring to deter the number of nesting geese. Improving the cleanliness of the water and human safety on the beach for our Summer season too.
