There are a great many birds to be seen in Lois Hole Centennial Provincial Park as Big Lake has been designated an Important Bird Area. This Guide features the most commonly seen birds; however, it is not a complete guide to all birds that could be seen at Big Lake. If you are, or become, passionate about birds, we recommend a comprehensive guide to the birds of North America as there are many species that migrate through Big Lake, or that are expanding their range into this area for a variety of reasons. There are also simply those individuals that wander off course and end up in our area; those wonderful lost individuals that keep birders on their toes.
