Our resident ducks were settled on a sandbar in their favourite creek.

They need to enjoy that bit of real estate as the creek is beginning to rise a bit from a recent rain (and hopefully, more rainy days will happen soon). This is important as, if you look about a quarter of the way up from the photo’s bottom frame and in the centre, you will see a pink spot. That’s a kokanee salmon attempting to swim upstream, and it’s very necessary that she get there in order to spawn.

A little further along the path, I saw a heron.

I wanted to capture the reflections, but got a bonus.

Happy finds are such lovely additions to a great walk.

Happy Friday.
