A regular sight at Burnaby Lake; a sandhill crane!

A regular sight at Burnaby Lake; a sandhill crane! These birds have been 'regulars' on our planet for a long time — a sandhill crane fossil found in Florida was estimated to be 2.5 million years old!

Another common sight in Penticton: the Black-Bille

Another common sight in Penticton: the Black-Billed Magpie. These are such beautiful birds, I wish we had them at home in the lower mainland.

Despite the efforts of the haters who saw these beautiful birds as pests, Black-billed Magpies are still a common bird throughout Canada and the US.

A young Mule Deer buck watches from the top of the hill on the KVR trail in Penticton, British Columbia.

Deer are a pretty common sight in Penticton, but for me, the novelty hasn't worn off. I live in an area where deer are a rare sight (even though they are here), so when I'm visiting the Okanagan I still feel the need to stop everything to watch.

I wish they could stay this small forever, but the owlets have now grown up and moved on. This stage was probably my favourite — they are curious, but not curious enough to start swooping right by your head, and they have the perfect amount of fluff.
