Bowen Island is 20 square mile chunk of rock lying two miles off the west coast of Canada. It is home to 3000 people, three mountains, two valleys, four lakes, about 15 beaches, two species of salmon, one village and me and my family.

Crickets, juncos, flying termites. All of these are signs of fall, and all are upon us now. Very strange. After a dry year and a half, it seems as if an early autumn might be upon us, given these signs. Plus the salal and blackberries were several weeks early, and both crops were HUGE.
Not a good huckleberry or thimbleberry year though. Small dry berries, not like last year. Salmon berries were probably average. So what does this tell us? We had a dry spring and early summer, but fall is fast approaching? Maybe. |
