It is always nice to visit Belcarra and especially Belcarra Regional Park but today was magical.  The park was almost empty and a few timid animals made an appearance like this Harbour Seal.  Belcarra is situated in the North East Sector of Greater Vancovuer and is a beautiful jewel.  Home to some amazing Real Estate as well! The Starfish can always be seen at low tide but this young Dungeness Crab escaped a fate of a boiling pot of water by being undersized and let go by the fisherman that caught him in his trap. This shot was snapped as he scampered back into the Ocean. Walking on this wharf in the Summer will find you all manner of people, large and small, sail and power boats tied up for a quick leg-stretch on the shore. Belcarra lets you forget that you live in a city of Millions ... 02/18/2009
