Downy Woodpecker at Burnaby Fraser Foreshore Park
Had a great time photographing this Downy Woodpecker on the trail at Fraser Foreshore Park in south #Burnaby today. Folks being good to maintain physical distancing.
Someone had left a pile of mixed bird seed on a downed tree, and the Downy was picking up sunflower seeds and stashing them in cavities in nearby standing trees.
Great Blue Heron Fishing in Fraser River
Great Blue Heron fishing from a log boom off Fraser Foreshore Park in SE #Burnaby today. I’d say it was batting around .700 . . .
Down the hatch!
Physically Distancing Canada Geese
Overheard this little tiff down at Fraser Foreshore Park in SE #Burnaby, BC, this morning:
“Hey you honker, you’re not physically distancing!”
“Fine, I’ll get my own piling. Sayonara, baby!”
Kestrel, Crow Harass Red-Tailed Hawk in Burnaby, BC
Kestrel and Crow taking turns harassing a Red-Tailed Hawk, #Burnaby Fraser Foreshore Park this morning.
Unfortunately I didn’t have Big Bertha along, so these are rather grainy super crops, but still kinda cool. . .

Anna’s Hummingbird
Sunshine Sisters
Sunshine Sisters. Glad to see Sora the Cat learning to relax and hang with Midori. Our late Choco the Cat and Dori always got along, but it’s taken Sora longer to play nice. . .
We think things began to even out the other day when Dori finally did a patrol of the entire living room, asserting it was her space, too .
At 27 or so, Dori is slowing down a bit . . .
Thrushes, Hummingbirds, and Tree Huggers in Burnaby
We took a morning ramble around SE #Burnaby. Did the Byrne Creek Ravine Park trail, had fun spotting salmon fry in the creek, and saw several thrushes and Anna’s Hummingbirds. Not much people hugging going on these days, so hugged a cherry tree in Taylor Park :-).
