Blackie Spit Park, BC, Canada

Blackie Spit Park in Surrey, British Columbia
is along the migratory
path for birds stretching from Alaska to
the southern tip of South America.
It's along what's called the
Pacific Flyway,
and is a temporary home to
many species of birds
twice a year on their journeys
to and from their summer and
winter homes.
Up to 1.4 million birds.
Honest, I don't make this stuff up.

Hard to imagine the
wee size of some of these birds, and
their flight over such long
distances.
Puts us humans to
shame when we can barely get
ourselves out the door for a
sunny afternoons jaunt around
the neighborhood.

British Columbia continues to
unfold her treasures and wonders.
