Seagulls on the Seawall
If you enjoy parks, trees, outdoor recreation and the like then Stanley Park is probably one of the places in Vancouver you visit if you're a tourist, or frequent if you're a local. The seagulls here are spending their rainy Sunday morning sitting on the Stanley Park Seawall, which is a 20+km path along Vancouver's waterfront from the Convention Centre on Burrard Inlet (Coal Harbour), around Stanley Park past the Lions Gate Bridge, and into the English Bay Promenade. Bring your walking shoes, a bicycle or rollerblades and a picnic lunch to experience the purest form of nature in the middle of the city.

Wings and Flippers in Stanley Park
Canada Geese can be a nuisance, but when they're not causing trouble they are attractive animals. I didn't realize they had such reptilian-like webbed feet. I think Darwin was onto something.

Portrait of a Canada Goose
It was raining outside, but this goose wanted a head shot for his portfolio. Makeup/wardrobe didn't do a good job of cleaning his beak of grass before the photo was taken.
Paws to Say Hello
The more humanly acceptable version of a mandatory sniff hello between man's best friends.
All For Naught
A pond in Maple Ridge that is regularly circled by dog walkers and runners has this sign posted along its banks. The ripples in the water speak to the redundancy of the warning so far this temperate winter.
