We took a walk along the beach and out to the end of the White Rock pier and back. Lovely light. . .

Eagle, Hawk, Jay & More at Fraser Foreshore in Burnaby
A cold wet walk yielded lots of bird life at Fraser Foreshore Park in SE #Burnaby, BC, today.

Lovey-Dovey Doves
So we’re having a walk in Fraser Foreshore Park in south #Burnaby, and we spot some Eurasian Collared Doves.
I said to Yumi, “I think they’re going to kiss.”
And they did.
At least that’s what my romantic, anthropomorphizing mind likes to think, eh? 
Birding Brea Island Near Ft. Langley
Initially we saw few birds on our Brea Island ramble, but eventually came across a few.
There were four or five Brown Creepers hanging out together at one spot.
Golden-crowned Kinglet
Northern Flicker
Steller’s Jay
Red-breasted Sapsucker. It wouldn’t sit still for more than a few seconds at a time, so this fuzzy shot is the best one I got.
Brea Island Pilings, Log Booms in the Fog
We walked to Tavistock Point on Brea Island near Ft. Langley, BC.
Lovely views despite the cold and cloudy day.
Peregrine Falcons at Centennial Beach in Delta, BC
We had the good fortune to spot two Peregrine Falcons on the aptly named Raptor Trail at Centennial Beach in Delta, BC, today.
I think this is only the second time in my life that I’ve shot this species. Goodness they are gorgeous!
Late Afternoon Rays in Taylor Park, Burnaby
Days are getting longer!
I swung by Taylor Park in SE #Burnaby, BC, on the way home from the bi-monthly recycling trip to the Burnaby EcoCentre this afternoon.
Paul Loaded for Action with Photo Gear
Running some backups tonight I ran across this photo.
Edmonds City Fair in #Burnaby in 2018. I was hired as the event photographer, and my friend Lori Geosits saw me and got this shot of moi loaded with gear.
A couple of Nikon DSLRs with short and long zoom lenses, and a belt pack full of flash units and extra batteries.
It will be great to have such events again some day. Stay safe, folks. . .

Byrne Creek Birds, Blossoms, Fungi
Took a stroll to Byrne Creek in south #Burnaby this afternoon. Spotted a few birds and some cool patterns.

Another Wet, Cold Fraser Foreshore Walk
Despite the wet, gloomy weather, I walked the lower portion of Byrne Creek in Burnaby, mostly because I was curious to see how high the river and creek were with the highest tide of the month and the rain.
This is a few meters upstream of the flap gates at theĀ mouth of the creek

A couple of Gadwalls in the pond just west of the creek outfall
