Sunny Sunday at VanDusen Garden

With threatening clouds in Burnaby, we headed west into Vancouver and spent a wonderful couple of hours wandering around the VanDusen Botanical Garden under mostly sunny skies.

We go the the garden several times a year, and the change since we were there a few weeks ago was amazing. There was a much wider variety of blossoms and flowers.

The tutles were out in force, basking in the warm sun.

A Great Blue Heron was there too -- likely the same one we saw a few weeks ago -- and is so accustomed to photographers that it allows people to come within a meter or two.
