Spring Photos Along Byrne Creek
Salmon fry testing the current, fogs splashing, insects buzzing, trees and bushes leafing and budding, flowers blooming... Signs of spring along southeast Burnaby's Byrne Creek.

Salmonberry hanging over the creek.

Unfortunately, the dreaded invasive Japanese knotweed was also on the rise.
We were fortunate to spot three trilliums -- these rare flowers are protected under BC law.
