I haven't finished posting photos from my last trip, but I thought I'd take a break and share a few more recent ones since I got home.
We had visited Esquimalt Gorge Park before, but we hadn't discovered the restored area along the creek/inlet. There were American Wigeons and Mallards, and a Kingfisher that even let me get somewhat close. (Unfortunately, I didn't have my long telephoto lens with me.)
There are still a few flowers hanging on.
Victoria doesn't have the best fall colors but there are a few splashes of color.
Despite the cooler weather, I've taken advantage of a few sunny calm days to get out kayaking.
One day we walked out on the breakwater. There was a bit of a breeze and the gulls were soaring back and forth in the updraft. I took many photos trying to catch them as they cruised by. A few turned out ok.
There was a big red ship in the background that added color to the waves.
And barnacles, and kelp, and pebble beaches shining in the sun.
The bugs are mostly gone now, but the odd one turns up on the wall of our townhouse and lets me practice my macro photography.
