Dead whales and duckies







I went out to explore the Boundary Bay area of Vancouver today as I had never been out there. I saw a group of people gathered way out at low tide. When I went out to see what the fuss was about I saw the dead whale in the photos. She was 10m (30ft) long. Got hit by a ship. You could see the propeller wounds all down the side of her, poor girl. Any person or nation who would hunt these incredible creatures needs an education with extreme consequences. The smell of a decaying whale is something you will never forget. Also saw a few ducks following their mom around today out at Boundary Bay. Ever cute. I think I may be leaning into another attempt at vegetarianism.
