theducksWent down to Boundary Bay park today for some bird watching. Had some good luck - saw lots of herons, a red tailed hawk, and this northern harrier.
We drove down to within 5 metres of the US border with Point Roberts - you can see a sign on the other side of the 6ft cyclone fence that says "Roosevelt Way". It's a small exclave of the USA created through essentially a surveying oversight.
Had a really nice dinner afterwards at Alfa's Greco-Roman. Mmm. Content.
