Dust Of Snow
The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

Howdy Mannoreans! This photo was taken this evening down in the warehouse district out Burnaby way where our neighborhood crows go to roost each night.  It is estimated that nearly 10,000 (correct me if I'm wrong) of the black winged beasties make their way there each evening.  The area is almost completely denuded and in lieu of trees the birds perch on roofs, wires, and fences - with many, many simply on the ground.  An eerie and bewildering sight.  Thanks Lyn for your keen knowledge of the lives of the West End critters!

Late afternoon life at the Lagoon.These photos were all taken today between 10:45am and 11:30am.  The swan signet is growing fast and the tadpoles are the size of cheeseburgers!  There are turtles on nearly every sunny rock and the herons have never been so tolerant.

Hello and welcome to the Stanley Park Manor blog! Feel free to comment on anything Manor-born. Perhaps you've noticed that the avocados the local fruit stand are looking paticularly fine this week; or maybe you pine for a lost sock and require sympathy - I can't promise you'll get it, but it's worth a try.
