Sections show the stormwater collection system in Nest. When I walked in the building, I found out the stormwater pipeline runs on the ceiling of the main floor. Also, the direction is from upstairs to two directions, West and East. One pipe is connected with downstairs from a pizza restaurant, another connects with the ceiling of RBC and directs to the exterior.

The black points show the pipe areas which connect with the gutters.
Areas of Interest: After observing for a 30 minute period I noticed that the flight paths of birds in the park tended to concentrate in the north end (Area of Interest #1, top of page). The north end also experienced considerably less pedestrian traffic than the south end (Area of Interest #2, bottom of page). Perhaps the birds targeted area of interest #1, due to there being less pedestrian traffic…or were there other potential reasons?… (see Map #2).
Map 2: Movement in Garry Point Park with added features
Areas of Interest: Map 2 includes the added features of the locations of all trees and buildings within the park. In the second 30 minute period of observation, the flight paths of birds continued to predominantly concentrate at the north end of the park (Area of Interest #1, top of page). The north end not only experienced less pedestrian traffic than the south end (Area of Interest #2, bottom of page), but also has a much greater concentration of trees and the only 3 buildings in the park. As such, it is likely that the trees and buildings (perching spots/spots to rest) are reasons for why there was a heavy concentration of flying birds in the north end throughout my time in the park.
In the second 30 minute period, however, I also witnessed a cluster of flying birds in the southeast end (Area of Interest #2). The main reason why birds were attracted to this area this time around was because a man was feeding them food out of the garbage can.
