A beautiful collection of photos featuring the colour pink from Travels Through My Lens. Travel has such a lovely collection of photos on her blog; it’s well worth a visit.
When I was in the Okanagan Valley earlier this month, the ducks were very active after what had been for them a cold winter. This duck pair had separated themselves from the larger group and were probably looking for a good nesting spot.
In areas, the grass was still a washed out winter colour.
Most of the other ducks congregated in noisy communal happiness, enjoying the warmer weather and greater abundance of food.
This mysterious light spiral showed up in the night sky over many parts of the north on April 16.

Scientific researchers from several universities have said that this phenomenon was caused by unspent rocket fuel attributed to a SpaceX launch, and not to an alien invasion. 😉
If this is indeed the product of a SpaceX rocket, I find it very disturbing that Elon Musk’s company is dumping enough fuel into the atmosphere to be that visible from an estimated distance of three kilometres (1.9 miles).
Although this is an ongoing debate that’s tied up in politics and money, shouldn’t these space/satellite companies be held to the same account on pollutants as others? What do you think?
