On the rocky promontory that comprises Songhees Point itself are a couple of totem poles, a kind of art created by the First Nations on the Northwest Coast of North America. Often these poles are painted with bright colours but I like that much of these two poles is simply the naturally aged wood.

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.

Kicking myself for never getting over to that side to take pics.
I've always liked totem poles, and this gives an amazing view.
I would have loved to seen the details in the designs of this taller totem Pole. I do like them both painted and natural.
