Descrição
North Lake sits in a rustic, less‑visited corner of Golden Gate Park. It’s surrounded by dense greenery, making it feel more like a hidden forest pond than part of a major city park. The area attracts a variety of birds and in winter many ducks. Birds you have a good chance of seeing include Pied-billed Grebe, Steller's Jay, Northern Shoveler, Ring-necked Duck, Ruddy Duck, Anna's Hummingbird, Black-crowned Night Heron, Belted Kingfisher, Downy Woodpecker, Nuttall's Woodpecker, Pygmy Nuthatch, Brown Creeper, Pacific Wren, Pine Siskin, Townsend's Warbler, Wilson's Warbler and Cedar Waxwing.
