LETTER FROM A FRIEND


Spanish Bank Stream is still of great interest to me and we are now eagerly awaiting the return of this years salmon.

We are not the only ones anticipating the return.

This fellow has been at the stream for one or two weeks.

I just got lucky this afternoon.

To be there; to see the critter; and to have a working video camera on hand.

A few years ago the stream at this spot was in a large wooden pipe several feet under a blacktop parking area at Spanish Banks.

In 1999 the stream was "day-lighted"

It is very comforting to know that given a chance nature is ready and willing to take over.

Nice insight David. That's one of the best things about Vancouver and B.C. in general. The natural beauty warms the heart and the senses.
