I think I mentioned seeing 100's of gulls gathering at another beach where a pod of seals were fishing. A couple of days later and here they are at #BlackieSpit. Had my camera this time and was barely able to capture them several hundred metres out. #seals #seagulls #nature #CrescentBeach #BC

Mallard Ducks, I believe. Not sure because of the white stripe on the male's head. #bird #birds #duck #nature #photography

Red-Tailed Hawk, or so I believe. It came in fast so I was lucky to get this fairly focused photo. #bird #birds #hawk #nature #photography

Meadow Lark. At least that's what a fellow birder told me. #bird #birds #lark #nature #photography

Dead Seagull. Discarded plastic isn't the only thing that kills our feathered friends. #Avianflu can also get them which can be transmitted to humans. The risk is low and human cases are rare but don't take chances. Never touch a dead bird. #bird #birds

Thought I'd post some more shots of this Red Tailed Hawk that I originally mis-identified. Cause who wants that mistaken hanging over their heads for all eternity. 🙂 #bird #birds #hawk #nature #photography

"Seal Hunt." This #video starts with an action shot of a #seal in the #SerpentineRiver, shifting to stills of the 1 foot waves generated as it chased a #salmon underwater. It then returns to live action with the seal back where it started holding the #fish in it's mouth. #nature #Surrey #BC

"Birds in Motion" is a few bits of #video that only hint at what goes on every day in the world of #birds. Eg., the #seagulls are active due to a herd of seals that my #INSTA360 couldn't pick out. And the #heron at the end happened so fast I only caught a few seconds of it. #bird #nature #Nikon

Today, Nov. 8th, is #IndigenousVeteransDay. Photo here is the Second Canadian Echelon that served in WWII. Second row, third from the right is my father. He was one of over 3,000 First Nations members who served, alongside Inuit and Métis individuals, during that war. #lestweforget
