Deer Lake in Mid-Winter
Yumi and I roamed around Burnaby's Deer Lake this afternoon for the first time in months. Five years ago we lived much closer to this beautiful park and used to walk it several times a week, so it was like visiting an old friend.
The view to the northeast from the upper meadow beneath where the penitentiary used to be.
The old ditches on the former pen farm are clearly visible amongst the flattened vegetation in the winter sun.
An old fence gradually decays next to a road.
A leaning tree extends over the lake.
A gorgeous pileated woodpecker looks for lunch.
