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.

Do you know the names of the birds you shoot off the top of your head when you shoot them? Or do you look them up when you get home?
Hi JoJo - sometimes I have a pretty good idea of what they are from browsing through field guides in my spare time. Sometimes I go out looking for specific birds. But much of the time I don't know precisely what I've seen until I get home and go through the field guides while looking at the photos. However, once I've identified a bird or plant I usually remember it next time I see it.
Here's a great water fowl photo! Great capture of 3 bathing beauties!
