A wee creek off the Paradise Valley Road near Squamish, BC, today.

After camping at Nairn Falls we drove the Pemberton Valley Road as far as the bridge to Lillooet Forest Road. Saw some deer, three kestrels, and a dead garter snake.

Downy Woodpecker on the trail between Nairn Falls Provincial Park and One Mile Lake near Pemberton, BC.

While we were camping at Nairn Falls we did the trail to One Mile Lake, around the lake, and back to the campground. Saw several dragonflies and grasshoppers.

We had a ramble this morning at Fraser Foreshore Park in SE Burnaby, walking from Byrne Road east out to the meadow and around and back.

A few sights along the way:

This chopper kept circling across the river in Richmond — likely related to the big fire yesterday.

Lots of snowberries around.

This stone has more cup holders than a minivan. . . It even has a cup. Sigh…

After visiting Lafarge Lake in Coquitlam, we walked the Shoreline Trail in Port Moody out to the Old Mill and the Old Orchard.

Northern Flicker

Killdeer

OId Mill

Spotted Towhee

We’ve never walked Lafarge Lake in the summer, but we’ve been to the Lights at Lafarge several times in the winter.

We succumbed 🙂
