After a few days of rain, the sun finally came out to brighten things up and I decided to check in on the Herons at the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve. Of course, I have to check in on any other birds and critters while I am there also. According to Google, “Herons lay 2–5… Continue reading A Sunny Day

Browne Creek Wetlands
When I was walking on the Vedder River Rotary Trail, I saw some signs about the Browne Creek Wetlands, so yesterday I decided to head back over there to see what I could find in the wetlands. I turned right and followed the trail for just a couple of dozen steps where the rotary trail… Continue reading Browne Creek Wetlands
Moving Right Along
I am now getting close to walking the entire Vedder River Rotary Trail. If I hadn’t taken 2 or 3 tries at the turnaround spot at the bridge, I would have probably finished it by now. But today I was back to walking along the Vedder River, on the opposite side. The parking spot I… Continue reading Moving Right Along
More Than 1/2 Done on Vedder River Rotary Trail
Yesterday I headed back to finally get moving again on the Vedder River Rotary Trail. I don’t know why they used such confusing signs in the bridge location. I had no problem following the trail until I got to the bridge. Well, I did have a little problem when I got to the huge pile… Continue reading More Than 1/2 Done on Vedder River Rotary Trail
Continuing on the Vedder Rotary Trail – part 1
Today’s plan was to reach the bridge on the trail and cross the river to the other side. Next time I will park at the bridge and continue. I believe that this will be the 1/2 way mark – but I could be wrong – LOL I am starting in the Great Blue Heron Nature… Continue reading Continuing on the Vedder Rotary Trail – part 1
Views on a Sunny Day – part 2
After returning to the parking lot area, I decided to walk to the trail that goes over the water and gives views from the bridges and the overlook area. Canada Geese
I am Not used to having Spring in January
Being a lifelong Manitoba resident (until I moved west last summer), I am used to extreme cold with spring finally showing up around the end of March (sometimes) or April (more often). I am loving the British Columbia weather. This may be a one-time thing and next winter may last longer, but I am taking… Continue reading I am Not used to having Spring in January
It Felt Good to Get Out and Really Walk
For the first time in several days, the rain stopped and the sun came out. I often walk in any weather, but several days of pouring rain along with some cold weather kept me inside. I still walked though. My apartment building is a full block long and I walk up & down the stairs… Continue reading It Felt Good to Get Out and Really Walk
Back at the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve
Each time I go back to this beautiful Nature Reserve, I explore a little bit more and this time was no exception. Some of the photos are cropped by WordPress to fit, but you can see the full photo by clicking on it. A pair of Mallard Ducks and a beautiful (& very tall) dead… Continue reading Back at the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve
What’s the Chance that I Might Find another Great Blue Heron at the Reserve
I know the Great Blue Herons leave the reserve once the young ones are independent, but since there was one young one still hanging out there when I went a couple of weeks ago, maybe I’ll find another one. I still have several trails through there to explore anyway. I did find a bird that… Continue reading What’s the Chance that I Might Find another Great Blue Heron at the Reserve
