That’s one of the dormant aerators on St. Mary Lake. Meanwhile some mixing of air and water was going on above the surface.
How big are the aerators? This big:

Two for the price of one today. The photo above is from the Long Harbour ferry on the pyjama boat, no-stop-run looking towards Prevost Island and the soon-to-rise sun. A crisp, clear and stunning morning. Enjoyed outside by one crew member (anchor watch) and myself. And possibly the folks sipping their lattes inside the boat. We were heading to Vancouver. (Tsawwassen terminal).
The photo below is taken coming back aboard the Coastal Celebration (to Victoria (Swartz Bay) well after the sun dropped behind us.
Spectacular last day of February. Apparently February in these parts was one the warmest on record.

Meanwhile according to CBC onTwitter,”Toronto has endured coldest February since mid-1930s. Temperature in city not above freezing for 36 days.”

Salt Spring Island has interesting rock formations on several beaches. Rock on one side, Eagles and ocean and mountains on the other. Sort of a gallery walk…

Salt Spring Elementary School
Amongst the mayhem and madness of a late afternoon art project in an elementary school classroom…a lovely moment between a young student and a high school peer tutor. The capable and motivated older student had just demonstrated a technique to the younger student…who’s completely focused on giving it a try.


Pink
February 25th is Anti Bullying Day, (AKA Pink Shirt Day in these parts). And all of us here at SaltSpringPhotos.com, while not normally attired in pink, are certainly behind the movement which started in Nova Scotia in 2007.

Lots to learn looking at this photo I think.
(this student is clearly focused on her scholarship applications, my presence was accepted—which makes my task easier)
