Share: Love of birds

Jake Brannagan loves birdwatching and photography and enjoys spending time around Pitt Addington Marsh and along the dikes. He shared a collection of bird photographs and wetland views with the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows News.

One image shows a cedar waxwing photographed on Neaves Road, which he described as looking like a “supermodel-villain.” Photos from Allouette River Dikes show sandhill cranes with their young. Other images feature an American bittern among the marsh grasses.

Brannagan also photographed a female black-headed grosbeak eating berries in his Pitt Meadows backyard and a grey catbird among Douglas spiraea at the marsh. The collection includes a view of Widgeon Valley from the marsh.
