A large canvas of my bear photo hung in the BC Legislature. Our local MLA claimed it helped pursued the Premier to totally ban Grizzly Bear trophy hunting in BC. Keep shooting photos, they can make a difference !

This bird has taken up residence in the airport, so they've protected the sculptures with plastic and added a sign explaining what's going on.

@RBCM From BC Provincial Invasive Species App (RI-IOS Smartphone App Report Submission), app coordinates (51.585621, -120.124237) place the observation on the golf course, but the photo shows a road surface, so manually positioned the location to the closest roadway along the river.

Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus)Observer
stewartwechslerDescription
A Great Horned Owl I saw in the park 2 days later confirmed for me that the feather was from that owl.
The feather is 4 3/4" or 12 cm, and that is a Thimbleberry leaf that might also be used for scale, for those who know how big Thimbleberry leaves are.
My initial ID made no sense after thinking whether a Western Screech Owl, about 8.7" tall, would have a body feather 4 3/4" long, more than 1/2 as tall as the bird!
