Beautiful Images of Beacon Hill Park In Victoria B.C

Since I have been posting so much on birds, I felt a change was due. Here are some wonderful shots of our Large local down town park. It's name is Beacon Hill and it's quite a large area containing lovely gardens, water features, old bridges, birds and just a feast of things to look at while your wandering around. Enjoy what our city offers and the beauty it holds.

  3. That is exactly where weeping willows belong, by the side of a stream or lake - not in small gardens.
    Looks a lovely spot and the stone bridge blends in well.

  7. Frank ~ Tranquility absolutely!!! A beautiful park to sit and think and not be bothered with allot of people or noises. I love it there.

    Cinner ~ Yes Beacon Hill park makes a lasting impression on all who visit it's beautiful landscaping and water features. Thank you for you beautiful compliment.. :)

    John ~ I agree with you a Weeping Willow doesn't do well in your yard simply because it's roots seek out moisture as you know...going into drainage tiles and your septic field...if you have a septic field. I remember as a child that my Grandpa had one and it's roots caused havoc with his septic tank..then the tree got cut down. Sad really I loved that tree.

    Shelley ~ Thank you my dear I live in God's country.

    Adrian ~ Thank you my dear I wouldn't have looked at these photo's that way. Interesting how everyone looks at things.

    Mary ~ Thank you my dear...you should come up to Canada one day..you would be in Photographic glory!!
