Lucien birthday, the park, an eagle

 Another milestone, Lucien's 14th birthday!!  Here he is launching into his favourite:  pineapple upside down cake, as it is made on the river, in a Dutch oven.  This was a treat that they made on the rafting trips he went on with his dad. 


Another eagle snacking on some hapless critter on the roof next door.  This happened about a year ago and in that instance it was a baby heron the eagle was devouring.  This time I just caught sight of it at the end of the meal.  I thought it was interesting that the crows were just standing around quietly, looking for an opportunity, not making a fuss as they usually do.





Another stroll through Beacon Hill Park.  Always something beautiful to see.





This is the biggest poppy I've seen.
