Critters at Moberly Lake Bossy Rufous and Busy Wrens
At Moberly Lake the swallow pair feeds young while a house wren raises a second brood aided by its daughter. Wrens nest near the back porch with a hummingbird feeder nearby as a rufous male and the wren quarrel regularly. A flicker probes the bank and joins the wrens to harass it. A western terrestrial garter snake was spotted on the beach as ravens drive an osprey to drop a fish, then the osprey recovers it and departs south.

History lessons in B C s taxes
BC tax debate critiques a Vancouver study by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. It argues that cherry picking in inter provincial comparisons underestimates BC taxes by omitting tobacco taxes and over counting municipal property taxes. The piece notes a two income family of four would pay less in Alberta and more in Ontario under standard estimates.
