Islands for City Parks

Does your city have a local park with a pond that is in need of some help?  If your local pond is suffering from poor water quality, bad odor, or an abundance of waterfowl and unhealthy fishing conditions, a floating island might be the solution.  Our islands are backed by years of research and have been used by many cities throughout the US and beyond.  The islands work both above and below the waterline to create ideal conditions for both fish and waterfowl.  We have worked with municipal, as well as non-profit groups to help balance the health of their local waterbodies.

Islands for Habitat

BioHaven® nesting islands have been used with success to increase reproductive success of endangered birds in lakes and reservoirs.  Islands can help mitigate negative impacts of reservoir operations by encouraging certain birds to nest away from areas prone to human disturbance.  Happy residents of nesting islands include swans, ducks, turtles, loons, frogs, clapper rails, caspian terns, and many others.  The nests are often surrounded by water, away from the common predators, creating a higher chance for survival.  The islands “ride the tide,”  so you can rest assured that this nesting site is protected from fluctuating water levels.
