Invasive Species
Victoria Park has some very invasive plant species that are trying to crowd out the native plants in the Park. Each summer, students spend hours removing these plants. Find what they are and how you can help stop their spread.

Dead Man's Pond
The pond is a mysterious place with many eerie stories about how it got its name and whether or not it is bottomless! The pond is really a wonderful amphibian habitat where the entire life cycle of animals like the spotted salamander can be observed.

Crows
Crows have been coming to the Victoria Park/Brighton area to roost during the winter months for more than 100 years. They like urban areas because of the warmth, lack of predators, food supply and the lights. It's a love/hate relationship!
