It was a cold, wet day, and I didn’t expect to see much, but did shoot a few eagles at Fraser Foreshore Park in south Burnaby, BC.

Underexposed, but I like the monochromatic appearance.

I walked to the bank in SE #Burnaby this afternoon, and took some rainy photos along the way.

First shots with my new Samsung S20FE phone. I rarely shot with a phone in the past as I always have a compact Canon SX730HS with a 40X optical zoom in a cargo pant or jacket pocket. And if I’m really being serious I lug a DSLR.

But methinks I’ll be using the S20FE more than my previous phones :-).

Yowza! Not one, not two, but three Steller’s Jays visited our balcony together this morning in SE Burnaby, BC.

I ran down to my office, grabbed a DSLR, and set the ISO to 6,400 with max aperture in the shady morning light.

As it gets colder and wetter we seem to be getting a broader variety of visitors to our balcony.

Black-capped Chickadee

Red-breasted Nuthatch

American Coots are so goofy looking and cute!

Near Piper Spit at Burnaby Lake on the weekend.

Thank you Burnaby Now — my photo of a Great Blue Heron eating a Coho Salmon on the cover.

Took a short stop at One Mile Lake near Pemberton, BC, today.
