An Afternoon in Stanley Park
The fallen leaves and colours are a giveaway that this footage was from the fall. I just got to putting together a little montage now. Stanley Park is fantastic. I always look forward to seeing the raccoons. Cute enough to feed, it's hard to resist the urge.
Scales and Spines
I met prehistoric-looking Iguana on a recent trip. Look at those lips! They look pretty moist compared to the rest of him. My skin gets dry and scaly this time of year too... from the cold though, not the heat as he faces everyday.
Waddling Through the Leaves
A beautiful and vibrant sight, nothing says autumn more than bountiful harvest colours like these. With a goose thrown in of course, just to reiterate that this is Canada after all.
Frog Legs
An outing in Stanley Park never ceases to amaze me because I so often come across something odd and wonderful, and always when I least expect it. I met this fellow near the entrance to the park. His name is Kermit of course. What else would it be?!
Gaggle of Gooslings
Why is it that anything in miniature is so adorable? Here's a gaggle of gooslings on a weekend outing with a parent.
Thugs
These two look like they're up to no good and on the prowl to rustle up some trouble. I'm not sure if I'd think the same thing if they didn't have the masked bandit look going on, but I was a bit put off with them coming towards me. They turned out to be rather friendly and seemed to simply be looking for a handout. We all walked a bit through Stanley Park together.
Natural Repurposing
Bird here is environmentally-friendly and into recycling. It took a decaying tree and made a house out of it. Upon further inspection, there were bits of string hanging out of the hole as well so I can only imagine the goldmine of things for padding that had been accumulated inside. Good thing birds don't have fire marshals - there's no way insulation of fluff, string and assorted bits of potentially hazardous flammable materials would pass any fire code.
Coated Horses
It's gotten so cold in Vancouver. The snow caps the mountains now. Even the horses are wearing coats.
Aldor Acres Pumpkins and Piggies
It's that time of year... get your muck boots out of the closet and head down to the local pumpkin patch. I spent a few hours at Aldor Acres in Langley last weekend; hay rides, petting zoo and a little bit o' dancing too.
