Beacon Hill Park

Although most of these pictures were taken around the same time - spring in Victoria - others were captured in summer and fall and all follow the paths we most often walk along. Somehow I missed a big part of the park, namely the formal gardens. Maybe I'll take care of that when the fine weather returns.
 
 There are some big trees - this one is a sequoia near the petting zoo/farm
 
our first welcome (they used to live in the zoo but now they roam)

some random pictures of the park and along the nearby coastal walk


a long shot of a stately visitor at the top of the world's tallest totem pole






and one hummingbird :)
