Wildlife Neighbours
The wildlife at Hotel Lake are our neighbours and we hope everyone who visits this section of our website will enjoy getting to know them better.
When we started this website in 2021, we selected the Bald Eagle for our Hotel Lake Advisory Association logo. This amazing raptor soars high above us and looks down on all of us with astonishingly accurate eyesight. Eagles see everything with a clarity that we admire. When we gather information and share it with you, this is our way of finding greater clarity about Hotel Lake and the wildlife and plant life that live here.
After almost going extinct in the mid 20th century due to DDT poisoning, these raptors are a true success story and because of their recovery, we chose the eagle for our logo because of it's high-view of the world below and for it's resilience in the face of adversity.

But What About Invasive Wildlife Species?
The topic of Invasive Species in British Columbia is a continuously expanding and multi-facetted arena that involves both plantlife and wildlife. British Columbia’s Invasive Species Council of BC (ISCBC) was developed as a strategic framework for improved invasive species management in British Columbia, publishing: The Invasive Species Strategy for British Columbia 2024-2028 which can be accessed at the following link: Invasive-Species-Strategy-for-British-Columbia-2024-2028-WEB.pdf.
​​This is an excellent document that will orientate you on this important area.
