Spotted this one at Swan Lake feeding it's kids. The young ones were able to fly short distances and hop from tree to tree.

Belted Kingfisher
I was lucky to take these photo's a while back along the gorge. It was doing it's job too picking up small fish along the shorelines.

Snapped this shot along the nature trail at Swan Lake. I spotted two of these birds having a conversation. They are loud and they have no problem with Canadian Geese.

Juvenile Bald Eagle

I believe my sister in law spotted this one at Burnaby Lake. The lighting quality isn't the best. I was just getting use to using my camera at this point as well. It was up in that tree with quite a few crows surrounding it.

I spotted this one at Island View Beach Park. This one just sat on that piece of driftwood for ages. Probably waitng for the Eagle to bring back a snack from the Ocean.

Thanks to Tania from work for helping me classify this one. I had no idea what it was and struggled to figure it out for quite some time. Spotted it in Vic West. Very neat color pattern.

You dont have to look far to find these iconic figures. I took these shots at Swan Lake. Watch your feet, cause these birds cover lots of ground!

I took these shots at Swan Lake. The most common duck you will probably find on this rock. A staple in the lakes of North America.
Red-breasted Merganser

I spotted this fella swimming in the Gorge Waterway. Another bird from the family of birds with oddly shaped heads!

I took these shots at Swan Lake. Spotted this trio up in a tree near the bluff. Cool looking bird. I had first thought they were Cardinals but later realized I was evidently wrong.
