In and around Taylor Park in SE Burnaby, BC, on my morning ramble.

I’ve seen goldfinches around the ‘hood almost daily for the last several days. These were across the street from each other near the entrance to the dog park from Southpoint Dr.

Anna’s Hummingbirds are territorial. I’ve seen them at both of the above locations — the wire and this tree — almost daily for the last few weeks.
