[edit] Overview

Iona Park is part of the Greater Vancouver Recreational Area (GVRA). It is located between the Fraser River and the airport. At the end of the road is a sewage treatment plant. Its various ponds are a favorite haunt of many shorebirds. At the end of the access road is parking lot and comfort station. Be sure to lock your car and not leave anything of value visible!

[edit] Birds

Opposite the parking area is a marsh that is home to a breeding population of Yellow-headed Blackbirds. The Pier that extends well out into the bay is actually the disharge pipe for the sewage treatment plant. Bald Eagles are often found there as well as Great Blue Herons. The herons are best seen at low tide when there may be more than a dozen working the tidal pools.
