Today’s ramble along Fraser Foreshore Park in south Burnaby, BC. We were glad we went early because by the time we left there was not a spot left to park for blocks around. Loads of people out enjoying the sun.
The physical distancing didn’t look too bad, but there were a few large groups of picnickers. Let’s not ease up too fast, folks, please. . .

This cormorant passed overhead at Iona Beach Regional Park near YVR today. We were surprized because most often we seen them skimming along low over water.
Wonderful to see a Yellow-Headed Blackbird at Iona Beach Regional Park near YVR today. But folks, please don’t leave bread out for birds to eat, it’s not healthy for them.
We spent several hours rambling the near-empty trails of Iona Beach Regional Park near YVR today. Oh yes, there were lots of people but most were at the beach area, so no issues maintaining physical distance on the trails.

Byrne Creek Ravine Park in SE Burnaby, BC, was lovely following the rain. Fresh and crisp, with wonderful sights and fragrances.
Folks good at physical distancing. . .
I’ve never seen as many Wilson’s Warblers as I’ve seen this spring. Also lots of hummers about.
