I just was outside. Shortly. Deadly silence. No birds, no sounds from my neighbour's different farm animals, no crickets. No cars, no happy children's noises. Even the tropics-adoring neighbours are inside.

During the lockdowns, everything in nature was sound. During the heatwave, everything is smell. The smell of carcasses ... creeping into the open windows at night.

Two different footpath trails - leading out from the native plant garden. The rock steps trail leads to the short boardwalk that connects to a dock, over the lake, that has seating. The gravel path leads you to the lake loop trail, across the wetlands/marshes (prime frogs/turtles spotting area), over a long boardwalk that connects one side of the lake to the other. *In really rainy times - the trails on other side of lake get flooded out.

#SilentSunday 2018.
Alone at the lake, on a cold, rainy day. It was a good day in the #rain. #GoodMemories 💗
The old wooden #boardwalk has since been replaced with metal.

2023. Using my #cane to pull out a toy that was dropped by someone into #SwanLake.

The District of #CentralSaanich says #ButterfieldPark will soon grow to nearly double its current size once it finishes purchasing an 18-acre parcel of land.

On Friday, the municipality said it had negotiated an agreement to purchase 18 acres of land at 1124 Mount Newton Cross Rd., which borders Butterfield #Park, at a cost of $3.2 million.
