Wonderful pictures - thanks so much, Pam! I've been trying to visualize where the little geese would go to find water, and your pictures do make it clear that it really isn't far - which I knew from Karen's post, but seeing makes it real!

And so many kinds of wildlife - wow.

Your both welcome... I enjoy doing it, it gives me a purpose and a excuse to drive around aimlessly LOL

:thumrht: Pam, great shots of the area! How good to see the young heron looking so big already. I'd love to see a heronry.
Is that a railway track between you and Jack and Jill's new tree?
We had reason to be in Chilliwack yesterday. I so wanted to detour up to Mission but dealing with a backed up ferry schedule this week didn't allow for much in the way of extra "missions".

Stim I am so sorry I missed your posting..so much going on. I know this may not make a difference now, but yes that is a railway. If you do come this way, let me know, I can show you all the good spots on this side of the river

What a day we had at the nest.. we arrived at 7am and the day went as follows.


We had not seen Clyde at the nest for a couple of days, so first thing I did was locate him on the lake. Turned out that was easy, he was right there as I came up over the hill




Clyde was just strolling along the shoreline.

This is the spot they brought the babies to.. its a beautiful spot and can certainly understand why they chose this spot to start their new life together.
