Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

Wow! Strong sculptures...and a lovely fountain.
excellent work also here
The bottom makes me laugh. That bird looks like it has an attitude problem...or that it's a show off.
I like the soft light on the eagle's wings. That looks like a lovely fountain too, with the circular array of spouts.
Thanks all for your kind remarks.
Michaela, I agree about the eagle. When I was posting these I began to wonder if it was done by a different sculptor. Its stance is so artificial in comparison to the much more realistic raven.
Elaine, these sculptures are easy to touch and so are worn a little pleasantly smooth by people and kids. It is a nice fountain and I have about 400 shots of the watery aspects of it for posting one day when I have nothing else....
