We have been walking “south” along the Fraser River towards Burnaby lately, and every day is like a new journey. I put the south in brackets because when we start walking we are heading east, naturally, but the river slowly bends to the south.
The river is affected mightily by the tides – way more than I ever imagined – and when the river is close to the shore, the birds are much closer to shore, of course. And that makes them much more intriguing to Bailey!
I’ve posted another video of her chasing seagulls across a field, so you know she might not be the brightest bulb in the candelabra. Her latest attempt at bird capture is with the Canadian Geese. She will charge them whenever she gets the chance. They simply retreat to the water squawking at the her, but won’t fly away. Now Bailey has taken to swimming after them!
She gets so muddy, I let her get in the river to rinse herself off and she does a great job!
