Hey #Nanaimo folks. I'll be up your way April 8th-11th. I am meeting & working with a new client who is moving from Nanaimo to Victoria in May. I will have some free time on some afternoons & evenings if Fedi friends want to meet up (DM please & thank you).
I'll be up that way again in May & a few other times this Spring-Fall too, for 2-3 nights each trip, for some cultural reconnection collabs & grassroots, decolonized, community building.
Stumbled across a rocky shoreline and watched the sealions swimming around for a bit. So cool!
Here's a photo that could be in my Herring Spawn video. This juvenile bald eagle was practicing how to catch a small fish in the big sea.

A beautiful moss covered Western red #cedar #tree - still unprotected.
Only a human, with a compromised & unwell soul, would be OK killing an elder tree this magnificent. Some things are just plain wrong.
These ancient old growth trees are essential to fighting accelerated #ClimateChange. #OldGrowth ecosystems in our coastal temperate rainforests supports much biodiverse lifeforms. The naturally moist environment helps to lower impacts of wildfires & other natural disasters that have increased as our governments continue to fund & enable more ecocidal projects.
Let's start the week with a recent photo of a mountain range on Vancouver Island in early morning light. One of the most beautiful place on Earth that I have the privilege to call home.

I never tire of photographing these interesting birds. Although common throughout North America, their intelligence and curiosity is always entertaining to watch through my lens.

Just another ecological component of a healthy & biodiverse, coastal temperate rainforest ecosystem on #Wsanec territory.
