The sun decided to make an appearance today in Vancouver, it seems like it is the first time in months. I took advantage of this remarkable weather and hopped on my bike for a lovely little trip to the beach, my sketchbook and of course the iPod tagged along. As I sat observing the waves and all the people bundled in their winter coats, I spotted two enormous bald eagles soaring above my head, along with a couple dozen or so seagulls. They seemed to just float in one spot, barely moving at all, showing off their wing spans as jealous little seagulls bounced all around them like small children on a sugar high. I think this pair of stunningly elegant eagles were out for the same reason everyone else was, to enjoy the amazing view of English Bay. The seagulls on the other hand, were there to be annoying.Go here for a live webcam of the bay.
