There were a couple of herons hanging about at Fraser Foreshore Park near Byrne Creek in south Burnaby, BC, today.

We roamed some trails at Centennial Beach in Delta, BC, today, and came across lots of crawling and flying little beasts.

We loved watching this heron fishing a few meters off the boardwalk in New Westminster, BC, today. Amazing success in the murky water.

We were having a picnic in Ft. Langley, BC, today and this wee bee kept hovering a few meters away. The AF couldn’t find the bee, so I had to manually focus. An SUV’s taillights in the background.

We spent a couple of hours at Burnaby Lake in Burnaby, BC, this morning. Toasty in the sun, cool in the forest. Lots of birds and bees and beasts to see!

This Pacific Chorus Frog was about the size of the first joint of my thumb

Love the strider shadows

Salmonid fry in Silver Creek

Heron, hummer, and waxwing at Deer Lake in #Burnaby this morning. I got a two-hour walk in before it got too hot.

Gorgeous skies at Deer Lake in Burnaby today.

There were a few people sitting on a bench nearby watching me, and one finally asked “what are you shooting?” I said, “bees.” She responded, “aren’t you afraid?”

Nope, they know I’m not bee-ing aggressive. . . I give wasps more space, and watch if they’re getting, um, antsy .
