Sort of a drive by snapshot.
A rainbow, centering itself over the Fulford village, made a very short appearance along Isabella Point Road.

The Skeena Queen enjoys its very own patch of morning light as the ship nears the terminal.
This BC Ferry travels from Fulford Harbour on Salt Spring Island to Swartz Bay (near Victoria) on Vancouver Island.

From the aft deck of the Skeena Queen as we swing into Fulford Harbour on the 1pm sailing from Swartz Bay.

Scotch Broom on Isabella Point Road (across from the Fulford Ferry Terminal)
Once the land has been cleared and the sun wakes up the dormant Broom seeds (I’m told the seeds can lie dormant for up to 60 years…) It only takes three to four years to create a fast spreading scene like this.
We’ve seen Broom before on the Salt Spring Photo of the Day (June, 2012). See also Royal BC Museum’s Aliens Among Us.

Yesterday I stumbled up this photo from way, way back while looking for images for a client. They are of course on Night Owl Farm, along the Fulford-Ganges superhighway. And of course they are often called ‘Oreo Cows’. But they are Belted Galloways and may be offended by being called Oreos.
And you wouldn’t want to be too offensive:

The black part of them looks a lot like the Black Angus my Dad had in Ontario. I wonder where the white oreo filling came from?
