At Stanley Park Ecology Nature House, on the shore of Lost Lagoon in Vancouver, you can learn about the park’s plants, birds and animals, then step outside to look for them along the water. The small nature centre has exhibits and runs programs for children. Around the lagoon, benches and shaded spots make it easy to pause, while walking and cycling paths continue into Stanley Park. Geese and ducks are often seen here, and May is a good time to look for goslings.
