We took the Skytrain and Seabus to North Vancouver today, and wandered west along the shore, and then back east along the shore. Then back on the Seabus to the south side to ramble around Canada Place before heading home.
The juvenile Red-tailed Hawks are still hanging around in the tree canopy next to our townhouse in SE Burnaby, BC.
They are now taking short flights of up to around 10-20 meters. One ventured as far as the roof of a townhouse across from us, hung out there for awhile, and then flew back into the trees.
The family of Red-tailed Hawks nesting above our townhouse balcony in SE Burnaby, BC, was putting on a show tonight. Lots of vocalizing and short tree-to-tree flights. I think maybe the parents are trying to get the young to fly. Cool!
Had a great walk at Fraser Foreshore Park in SE Burnaby, BC, this morning. Photographed a Black-headed Grosbeak, a bird I don’t see very often. Also both Anna’s and Rufous Hummingbirds, a Brown-headed Cowbird grooming, and more.
