The Olympic Sculpture Park is on the waterfront near the ferry terminal (and our hotel). It's an enjoyable place to wander around.
The plants seemed slightly further along than in Victoria, but not by much. These seem more like crocuses but I think they're Winter Daffodils.
Whereas I think these are spring crocuses
They're often regarded as invasive pests, but I like starlings. From a distance they tend to just look black but they can be quite colorful if you catch them in the right light.
There were various birds on the water, including Surf Scoters with their funny looking bills.
and Common Goldeneyes with reflections :-)
There was also a cute little Cottontail rabbit in the park.
While this metal tree was quite striking, I think I prefer the real ones.
The larches were busy growing new needles. I enjoyed observing the larches at Innovation Place.
Oregon Grape was flowering
which the insects, like this Common Drone Fly, were also enjoying
And Red-flowering Current (I think)
This lichen was almost as colorful as the flowers
And with the water nearby, I couldn't pass up some reflections.
