Fort Langley B.C

Fort Langley, is a beautiful small town, in recent years, many of the village’s old buildings have been restored. The restorations, combined with its rural setting, access to the river and mountain vistas,  and the old Fort itself, make it a thriving tourist center. Outdoor recreation includes canoeing, fishing, hiking . The town has served as a filming location for commercials, TV shows and movies, with its striking yellow community hall usually featured prominently.

Under five year old Bald Eagle in B.C Canada

I took these pictures of the under five-year old Bald Eagle in B.C Canada. It was sitting on an electricity pole near the sea. Usually It is found near large bodies of open water with an abundant food supply and old-growth trees for nesting, this time also…

The Bald Eagle is an opportunistic feeder which subsists mainly on fish, which it swoops down and snatches from the water with its talons. It builds the largest nest of any North American bird and the largest tree nests ever recorded for any animal species, up to 4 meters (13 ft) deep, 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) wide, and one metric ton (1.1 tons) in weight. Sexual maturity is attained at the age of four to five years.

Hiking in Porkkalanniemi

I’m participating in LetsBeWild.com’s Wild Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s Challenge is: Hiking!

The area is characterized by the best of its rugged cliffs, at Telegrafberg , high on the hill is the best place to overlook the panoramic view of the open sea.In the rugged cliff forest there are  five Bronze Age burial place (heaps). The cliffs are slippery and hazardous particularly autumn when it rains, it should be taken into account in moving in the area. In the summer it is a beautiful place to spend the day.

Spring in Kirkkonummi

tina´s wordless wednesday # 85

Spring has finally arrived to us here in Kirkkonummi, Finland. Yesterday  in the garden, I saw the crocuses were in bloom and  spotted the first wood anemone’s  in the forest.

The catkins were still in going strong – and there was still some ice in the ditch by the road.

April

April is a cruel time
Even though the sun may shine
And world looks in the shade as it slowly comes away
Still falls the April rain
And the valley’s filled with pain
And you can’t tell me quite why
As I look up to the gray sky
Where it should be blue
Grey sky where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I’ll cry, say that I don’t knowBaby once in a while I’ll forget and I’ll smile
But then the feeling comes again of an April without end
Of an April lonely as a girl
In the dark of my mind I can see all too fine
But there is nothing to be done when I just can’t feel the sun
And the springtime’s the season of the night

Grey sky where it should be blue
Grey sky where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I’ll cry, say that I don’t know
I don’t know

April

Valokuvatorstai: TOIVO – HOPE

Toivo - Heijastus

Sielunpeilin on mahdotonta heijastaa mitään, mikä ei ole sen edessä.

Tyyni järvi ei voi kuvastaa syvyydessään vuorta, puuta tai pilveä, elleivät ne ole aivan lähellä.

Valo ei voi luoda maahan esineen varjoa, ellei esinettä ole olemassa.
Mitään ei voi nähdä, kuulla tai muuten aistia, ellei sitä ole olemassa.

 Kahlil Gibran

Tie kohti toivoa
