    Wow and Wow again. Spectacular capture Gail. I’m trying and trying to get any shot of eagle and still don’t have any. Maybe I should plan a trip to Vancouver island.

  • Gail Bridger replied

    Smiles, in April & May there are an abundance of eagles all around me! Their mating season, after that they are guarding their eggs and not around as much. You would love Vancouver Island, lots of tourism here from all nations. :) If you decide to come please let me know, I can point you in the right direction for anything you would like to see. :)

  • Lynn Bauer

    Lynn Bauer

    Gail, this is an incredible capture! I just love it! I was able to get a few good eagle shots when I lived in Colorado, but haven’t had much luck here in California. My husband and I will be traveling to Vancouver next month. Any hints on great places to go for spectacular scenery, wildlife and/or fall color would be greatly appreciated!! We will only have 4 days, but I plan to make the most of it!! Thanks so much!!!

  • Gail Bridger replied

    4 days is not long enough. smiles. Stanley Park is a must see in Vancouver, and Victoria is quite beautiful too! Victoria is on Vancouver Island, a ferry trip~1.5hrs., Buchart Garden would be a must see!! The island is beautiful from one end to the other, but you would need more time!
    Try this link
    Hope I helped, and do enjoy your trip! Take lots of pictures!! :)
    And,
    Thank you for the awesome comment on my eagle!! :

    Gail – Thank you so much for the info on Vancouver! I wish we would have more time, but my husband’s company is sending us…and I’ll take what I can get! Vancouver/Victoria has been on our “must see” list for a very long time!! We’d already planned on a day in Stanley Park, a day in Victoria/Bouchart Gardens, and a day driving to Whistler. Just wanted to see if you had anything else to add, or any specific stops within those places! This will be a short, but sweet trip & I’m sure will just whet our appetite for more!!! :-)

  • Gail Bridger replied

    You’re very welcome!! You will love it!! And, yes you will be back! Long Beach in the summer out near Tofino on Vancouver Island an absolute see!!
    You will have to let me know how the trip went when you get back!! :)
