Mink Bay has been designated a provincially significant wetland and many birds and other animals either make their homes along its shores or stop in during their seasonal migrations. Depending on the time of year you can expect to see a variety of songbirds, waterfowl including pelicans and loons, eagles, spruce grouse, deer, rabbits and beavers. We have also seen river otters, mink, wolves, foxes, herons, owls and bears though not as regularly. There is also a great diversity of plant life growing along Mink Bay with an incredible array of wildflowers that change with the seasons.
