Polar bears are much further north than we are. Black bear, however, are pretty much a fact of life in parts of the Vancouver area, mainly those adjacent to the mountains. Spring and fall mostly, they're either coming out of, or about to go into, hibernation and are in search of food. Sadly many many are killed yearly by conservation officers when they're deemed to be a danger because they've become habituated to people. The same people who routinely don't practice "bear aware" rules and leave garbage etc. out where the bears can get to it. It's a big problem.
We also have a very active coastline, lots of wildlife in it's season, humpback whales, sea lions, seals, the aforementioned killer whales. All manner of waterfowl. I guess every place has it's own beauty, the pics you've shown are wonderful!
Oh, my!!! I'd love to see those big whales and seals, they must be gorgeous in the wild!!! :hbeat:
Shame about bears, we have them, too, not in the cities, obviously, but in the forests, they love corn! They raid the corn fields and eat it A LOT, and break on their way even more!!

Has anyone seen this bag irl? I find it very interesting. I was told that the drop is not long enough to wear it on the shoulder. A lot of you are out and about more than I am, so I figured someone may have seen it in a boutique. Not much to do here on Ban Island other than surf the Internet.

It's very busy, isn't it ... I think this is one of those that V0N dislikes for all the nasty hardwares. :frown:

I like the shape. But I'd need to be able to sling it on my shoulder and if the drop is inadequate then that's an issue for me. Plus, I do currently reside on Ban Island and FedEx doesn't deliver here.... I want to see it.
