A more subtly-hued tree. Kentucky yellow wood I think. A species unfamiliar to me used along streets with recent town home developments.

Calm morning after a night of thunder and rain. In a place where thunderstorms are rare last night’s was a doozy that went on for several hours. These pictures are of the middle arm of the Fraser River showing a pretty boat, the UBC rowing club and the Dinsmore Bridge .

At lights motorbikes swarm among the 4-wheels, filling gaps like fluid. Light changes, they roar off first.

Each island with its cloud, each cloud with its shadow.
Two small islands of low relief in a flat blue ocean, each with a puff of white cloud off its north coast. Tablas Strait, Philippines.

It’s a grey, grim day on the Burrard Inlet, but the North Van sulphur heap will have none of it.

Grey today in Steveston.
Evenly spaced pilings standing near riverbank, South Arm of Fraser River. Grey sky and water, a red-berried shrub in the right foreground.

No tsunami, thank you. (Though here on the sheltered side of Vancouver Island, a big wave would be unlikely as I understand it.)
Team of 4 rowers, their coach in a small boat with an outboard motor, working things out on the Middle Arm of the Fraser River, No. 2 Rd Bridge and Vancouver’s North Shore mountains in the background.

More like it.
Snow-capped Mt. Baker in northern WA, as seen from green farmland 100Km/60mi away in Delta BC, appears to be floating in a cloudless blue sky.

Shrubs, trees, gardens here are as lush as I’ve ever seen. Trees from the East Asian collection at Garden City Park: Davidia (dove tree, handkerchief tree), dawn redwood, Chinese tulip tree. And the rhodos are bonkers.

Blue sky, blue sea, blue islands. Approaching YVR over Bellingham Bay, admiring the San Juan Islands, as pretty an archipelago as you’ll find anywhere.

Spring wants to poke you in the eye with its fat furry fingers. This is what causes allergies.

Thunder was predicted but didn't materialize last night. Not predicted was a Short-eared Owl in a rhododendron in our back yard. But there it was at dinner time, an open-country bird checking out the burbs.
