17 New Birds

I identified 35 bird species on our trip, 17 of which were lifers for me, and only a few of which I got decent photos. I keep track of my birding on a free website called Birdstack. Here is the link to my Birdstack Vancouver list.

Steller's Jay

I'm in the process of posting travelogue photos on my other blog, but I thought I'd post a few photos of some things here.

One thing nice about big trees is that they make you feel little.
