I walked along Byrne Creek in SE Burnaby, BC, this morning all the way to the Fraser River and back to Edmonds.

I was thrilled to observe a Red-tailed Hawk pas de deux, and a Sandhill Crane overflight, both not far from Riverway Golf Course.

There were lots of Tree Swallows and a few Violet-Green Swallows
