Wildlife The lake area at Forest Hill Park, soon to be renovated, is home to many kinds of wildlife, particularly birds and turtles.  Bird species include the Belted Kingfisher and the Red-winged Blackbird.  The upland areas of the park are also home to many species of birds, including Red-tailed Hawks who nest in the park.  The following is a list of all bird species that we have observed during our winter birdwalks through this venerable old park, located in the middle of the city!
