What's Going On?

Granite Lake Park

Huge shout out to Carolina Waterfowl Rescue and its volunteers! Occasionally, it is discovered that one of the frequent visitors to the Lake Park is suffering from an injury. Yes, we are talking about the waterfowl at the lake. These birds are wild and come and go as they please, but sometimes an injury keeps them from moving on. CWR has several volunteers in the immediate area that, when notified, use their free time to try to rescue the bird and get it to Indian Trail for medical attention and rehab with the Carolina Waterfowl Rescue. If you see an injured duck or goose, please follow these steps so help can be on its way quickly.

1. Take a picture of the injured bird

2. Text the picture to CWR at 704-286-6330 with your name and location or proximity of the injured bird

3. Volunteer to help catch the bird - sometimes only one volunteer is available and needs a little help
