The Penticton duck flock likes to hang out in and near this creek that empties into Okanagan Lake.
They are frequently in and out and spending time on the embankment as well where people tend to feed them and make a fuss of them, but the creek is their favourite.
Happy Sunday.
A mill pond-calmness on Okanagan Lake produced this beautifully reflective and meditative surface.
Spring can gift us with such tranquility and serenity in a single view.
Happy weekend.
In Penticton, spring is a-flutter and a-bloom. The ducks are happily pairing off, the Canada geese couples are arriving and the spring bulbs are blooming.
Daffodils, otherwise known as narcissi, are such an enticing spring yellow.
A goose couple eyes us suspiciously from the water. They can be very aggressive and loud, but if one is cautious and slow, they won’t shout at you too badly.
Unfortunately, I won’t be able to enjoy more of Penticton’s spring until I return five weeks from now.
Happy Friday.
In fiery hues. Pink stripes, and polka dots. Dragons who, slay you with beauty, pink champagne, sunbursts, and soft purple claws. Cheers to you from …

The Penticton mallard duck flock has weathered the winter in good knick and are getting ready to start nesting.
The males’ heads have turned a brilliant green, indicating that they are ready to mate. Soon there will be lots of little ones around.
Happy Wednesday.
Mount Robson Provincial Park is in British Columbia just west of Jasper National Park. It is the most prominent peak of the Rocky Mountains and is completely surrounded by park lands.
When we drive from Northwest Territories to Penticton, we often stop at Mount Robson to stretch our legs although we have never stayed there. The walking/hiking is amazing.
Happy Tuesday.
Mossy Stone River
A gorgeous river photo from Peerless Cynic. I can imagine sitting next to this fresh shady river on a hot day. I hope you stop by Peerless’s site to see more lovely photography.
It has been nice to have a break from the north to enjoy some spring weather.
Happy Monday.
