We saw many frogs, dragonflies, damsel flies, garter snake, alligator lizard & birds galore. Wonderful nature outing with friends.

I try to introduce as many #friends to this amazing local #NatureSanctuary as possible. Once they experience the natural magic, they fall in love with it & support continued protection efforts.

#Salal #flowers will become #food #berries soon 🥰
#SalalBerries are a major #FoodSource for #BritishColumbia #FirstNations - can be dried & made into cakes. Fruit leathers can be made by blending berries & spreading flat in a pan & drying in sun or oven. Berries can also be used to create a dark blue or purple dye. Branches & leaves of salal are used to line cooking pits & provide flavour. Leaves are used to cover cuts and wounds.

#RubusUrsinus - #TrailingBlackberry aka #DevilsShoelaces due to trip hazard stems. Species name #ursinus is derived from ‘urs / ours’ the word for #bear . This is a #NativePlant - Himalayan #blackberries are invasive.
