That’s Hatley Castle in Victoria (technically Colwood, I think), where my grandparents and I lived in Canada! And where I went to uni, and where I met Edward!

Oh hey, #YYJ cyclists, any word on the progress of the new Colwood overpass for the Goose?

The main span of the Casano-Loutet overpass was installed this week and can be seen on the DriveBC highway camera. The pedestrian and cycling overpass is expected to be completed in July.

Experienced the bountiful Esquimalt Lagoon, Colwood, BC mid December 2025 with a friend and was able to capture this Western Sandpiper foraging amidst the tideline amongst many others.

The lagoon is a beautifully rich site for viewing a variety of shorebirds. It was busy that day 🦆✨️

This black-and-white photograph captures the twisted and gnarled branches of an arbutus tree. The photo focuses on the unique, contorted shape of the tree's trunk and branches, covered in moss in some areas. The black-and-white format emphasizes texture, contrast, and form. The style suggests a focus on the natural form and texture of the environment.

Picture of a handsome Belted Kingfisher, taken at Esquimalt Lagoon, Colwood, BC. Mid December 2025 on a uncharacteristically lovely day for the season.

I adore these birds for their colour and distinct eye "brow" spots. It has been a goal of mine to capture one in a photo for awhile 🐟✨️

Last week we got to see the first midday service on the 51, which runs UVic to the Westshore!
Midday takes 30 min to go from Colwood to UVic, very comparable to driving. If you've ever taken it at rush hour you'll know it often takes 60 min or more. It's time to get these busses out of traffic!
