We've spend the past seven days in Duncan. Being stuck isn't always that bad...Ocean swimming in Maple Bay, chilling by the river and enjoying the relaxed atmosphere in Duncan city near Duncan Garage. A cool place that provides: organic food, a second hand bookstore, relaxation therapy, a Showroom full of music and theatre and many more.
Have you ever seen a Chevy SS EL Camino...well this is it, awesome car. It's a mixture between an old american sportscar and a pick up, very interesting! And as you see, our camping spot was in the back. We thank Longivity John for letting us use the facilities of the garage, thx John! We also visisted the Bird of Prey Centre, they have a nice collection of raptors and offer a nice but short flightshow!
Golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos)
Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus)
Kookabura (Dacelo novaeguineae), Australia.
Prairie Falcon (Falco mexicanus)
Juvenile Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)
Harris Hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus), Mid-Southern America
I hope to work with these beautiful raptors down in BC in the month of september. We left Duncan for Campbell river, Salmon capital of the world! I can tell you, so far no luck with the fishing that's for sure! Not even a single bite. After our week of delay and a rather big cost on our lovely van (thx Myriam!), we most likely will leave the island in a few days to go fruit picking in the Okanogan Valley. That means: no North Coast Trail for us, we're having a hard time finding a dogsitter anyway!
This is how we spend an average evening in our house, from left to right you see...Hannah's feeth, a bunch of clothes, a headhone case, a white iPhone, a walmart bag with groceries, grapes, a purse and training pants, a sixpack of Spyhopper, a mosqitoe zipper, water, old bread and my fishing gear. In the middle our lovely netbook with external DVD reader: ready to watch a Rome episode!
Many greets
Next stop will probably be: Tofino!
