Well Wrapped Trees
I quite like the monochrome look of this scene.

Japanese Rock Garden
I was here 17 years ago if you want a comparison. The lantern is in the same place, now with more moss. That "island" in the foreground is new and the rocks have moved a lot. You can see when some of those bushes were just planted.

Japanese Garden
I believe this is a recent addition. For comparison, a Japanese version a few hundred years old.

I came back 17 years later and took a photo from a similar spot. The rocks have moved a lot and some of the trees are much larger now.

Peacock
This bird was standing on one of the outer buildings in the gardens at Hatley castle. There weren't many birds but they were fairly tame.

Plum Blossom
Given how early this flow is out, it is most likely a plum blossom

Rock Garden
This is the Zen Garden in Ryoan-ji. From the viewing platform you attempt to see all 15 stones, but only 14 (or fewer) are visible from any position. This fifteenth century garden has all sorts of tricks. The far wall isn't even close to level and gives you a sense of depth from the forced perspective. The trees behind the back wall all have seasonal version (Cherry blossums, or falls colors, evergreen or deciduous.). The garden runs roughly east to west and the viewing platform is on the north side so the shadows change over the course of the day.

Garden And Pond
This is the view as you walk into the park. With the haziness, I wasn't happy with the photo, but I'm sure you could do a lot with a long lens.

Intermediate Egretta
Besides being Japan and the species being very different - I'm pretty sure it's not a Great Egret because the legs aren't black all the way up.

Model of Garden

This is a model of the Rock Garden.  The real garden is pretty hard to get far back from so this
gives you a good idea how it works.  You sit along the bottom edge and try to see all the stones - once you can,
you have reached a zen state.
