I have reached the end of 2007 in my stay-at-home review of my photo archives. Deleting some redundant shots, and posting some old “finds” to FB.

Here are a few from today:

Northwestern Garter Snake on the Byrne Creek dike in SE Burnaby, BC in October, 2007. We used to run across snakes at least a few times every summer, but the last few years sighting have dwindled to near zero.

Black-Crowned Night Heron in Inokashira Park in western Tokyo, Japan, October 2007.

Juveniles?

Ruddy Kingfisher, Nagasaki, Japan, fall 2007.

Koi, Nagasaki, Japan, fall 2007.

Egret, Nagasaki, Japan, fall 2007

Herons on the Atomic Bomb Dome in Hiroshima, Japan, fall 2007.

In this overall view, the herons are top right, on the flashing at the second ring from the top.
