Guests enjoying a sunny day here at #birdsofafeatherbnb in the City of Colwood

We’ve been referring our guests to Good Time Dave's Fishing Charters for some 15 years now and he never disappoints. If you’re staying here he’ll pick you up right from here.

#bookearly / #bookdirect with us to reserve your stay here at #birdsofafeatherbnb we already have a higher than usual number of bookings from now through September.

It’s uncommon to see red headed woodpeckers out here on the west coast but this close up showing how he chisels away at the tree was too cool not to share with our birding guests. Reasons a woodpecker may be pecking on trees is to build nests, attract mates and even store food. In most cases, woodpecker damage to trees itself is not very harmful to the tree, but does create wounds that disease and insects can enter the tree.

November high tides halfway up the boat launch and the creek overflowing today

Wind storm churning up some white caps here on the lagoon

While we discourage float planes from landing here on the lagoon as they have previously done a couple of times we do wish to make you aware Harbour Air Seaplanes has multiple daily flights between Vancouver and Victoria for when lower mainland travel restrictions are eased again. They now limit passengers to 9 down from the usual 14 and with fares ranging from $109 to $139 this might be a safe alternative means of travel to the island.

Navy Ships Remembrance Day sail past here at the lagoon City of Colwood today at 1:20
