Went to the local Buy Low to check for bulk blueberries and found fresh wild Sockeye. I cut it crosswise, bone in for more flavor, in about 1.5cm widths. Yumi making salted mini steaks to freeze for later use in bentos and onigiri rice balls.
Thank you Sockeye!
I took a morning walk around Byrne Creek Ravine Park in SE Burnaby, BC, today. The highlight was coming across this Red-tailed Hawk in Ron McLean Park.
Took a short photo ramble at Fraser Foreshore Park.

The Red-tailed Hawk family nested near our townhouse in Burnaby, BC, again this year. Nice to see them!
Spotted a grouse, a Steller’s Jay, and a Douglas Squirrel while camping in Manning Park.
This was my first sighting of a Common Nighthawk. It was along highway 5A, but I don’t recall the exact spot.
It was exciting to see an Osprey take a trout at Lac le Jeune, near Kamloops, BC, and then have a Bald Eagle try to steal the fish!
It appears that neither ended up with sashimi this time!
There were lots of trout jumping for bugs in the evening. . .
Happy to see the Osprey back at One Mile Lake near Pemberton, BC. Doubt if the fish is happy. . . 🙂
