For some reason the phrase "having a bad hair day" comes to mind. Minnekhada, Port Coquitlam

Spawning salmon fighting for a patch of gravel to bury their eggs. Partington Creek Minnekhada, Port Coquitlam. It is amazing how they retain a film of water over their bodies at all times.

Another Halloween Jack-'o-lantern. Historically they started off using big turnips which were carried with a candle inside as a lantern. Nowadays it's a pumpkin on the porch with a bulb inside (or a plastic junk from a superstore).

Halloween Jack-'o - lantern I carved for my grand kids some years ago. They are all grown-up now so I no longer have an excuse. Have more from other years I will dig up.

Something different. Life on K2-18B as I imagine it. No humanoids (or politicians). Imagination is the beginning of creation - George Bernard Shaw. Digital art modified fractal rendering - no intelligence used (AI or other).

Our Russian Laurel is confused. It flowered in spring as it should, but is now flowering again in October. Still has it's berries! Such is the state of our world these days. #Gardening 🌱 #Naturalists 🌿 #Photography

These guys rarely stay still long enough for a (60mm) portrait shot.

Tiny threads so fine and bright, weave a web with morning light, built to capture and strong as steel, these strands will catch a tasty meal.

This little stinkbug sports an impressive livery with red accents and white markers on it's legs and antenna. Wonder if they go through a transformation (starting off green or brown then becoming fancy?)

Our Coleus' are particularly vigorous and colourful this year. Maybe the hot weather is responsible?

Our Cannas will bloom well into fall. I struggle to preserve the bulbs over winter unfortunately. Any tips welcome.

One of the 22000 species which have been identified. A highly social insect exploring my garden on its own. What is it thinking?

Orchids never fail to please - this one is particularly beautiful, and has been flowering for over 3 weeks already.

Unknown green bug - looks like some form of stink-bug but rounder & not as flat. Friend or foe?

It has been nice to see bumble bees back in our garden this year! They were probably there all along but I missed them. On paper, with those stubby wings, they should not be able to fly.
