Sunday Drive

Hopped in the car, pointed West and stopped when the opportunity arose.  Grey skies and rain still made for excellent photo opportunities. 

Somewhere in Sooke there is a peg-leg seagull.  Arrrrr.

Esquimalt Lagoon

Finally took my new EF-S55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS lens for a walk today.  I knew right away that I wanted to visit Esquimalt Lagoon because it always offers a variety of scenery and it’s been at least 3 years since I have been there.

Hatley Castle.  Remember X-Men?

Never seen a duck(?) with a blue bill before.

The multiple types of birds were fun and amazing.  Anyone have any clue what this fellow with the red turkey-esque beak is all about?  I thought some sort of turkey vulture, but he’s got webbed feets!

Fisgard Lighthouse.

Favourite shot of the day…

Froze my nose off, but it was worthwhile. :)
