Working on acclimatizing Sora the Cat to a harness and leash. Baby steps, but she’s coming along.
We hope to get her to the point where the late Choco the Cat was. Choco would ask to be harnessed and taken out.
Too dangerous for cats to be out on their own around here, steps from a ravine forest, and of course, even fed domestic house cats have a huge impact on birds and other wee critters. . .
I’m scared, Daddy!
Oh, that’s a bit better, cuddling in the sunshine : – )
Lots of blossoms in Ron McLean Park and along Brynlor Drive in SE Burnaby.
Saw several Northern Flickers and a Varied Thrush in and around Taylor Park and Byrne Creek on my walk in SE Burnaby, BC, today.

Mallards in Griffiths’ Pond near Edmonds Skytrain Station. It’s a small pool and I rarely see waterfowl in it.

Taylor Park, Byrne Creek buds and blossoms in SE Burnaby, BC.
So a few days after I played follow the leader with a Pileated Woodpecker in Fraser Foreshore Park in south Burnaby, we spotted another one just a few dozen meters from our back gate on our Byrne Creek walk today.
