No wonder these animals are elusive, they have excellent hearing, just look at the size of the ears on this young female :

Four deer day
The route we have been walking, down near Gospel Rock and a place called "Little Africa" is full of wildlife, some rather elusive to the camera. Friday was an official "four deer day" with a young buck and three young females.

Bump on a Log
We where out on a media boat, following the clipper canoe outrigger race on Saturday, lots of excitement and a glorious day out on the water. I saw some driftwood floating by and taking a ride was a sunbathing seal.

Grasshopper
Something we walk past all the time, and don't take the time to look too closely, here, up on Gospel Rock, a little grasshopper that was quite happy to pose for a quick picture. Size, about 30mm long.

Two Ferry Day
After we had walked around Soames Hill, we ended up devouring a beef and mustard sandwich on Hopkins Landing Wharf, close to Langdale ferry terminal, and for our viewing pleasure, a bi-product of the summer ferry schedule happened with the dance of the Queen of Coquitlam ferry and the "bonus" Langdale ferry the Queen of Surrey.

Foxglove
Native to BC and prolific, at first Karen thought that these were Mullein, but said that they could be like the British Foxglove, they are HUGE and usually around five feet tall at least.
This one on Chamberlin Road on our walk around Soames Hill.

Two Deer Day
It was a two deer day today, and we had the camera, and they cooperated with us, in fact I was about three feet away from this young male when I took his portrait. This was up around the Soames Hill area, near Twin Isles, I think on the corner of Bridgeman Road near someones front gate.
And here's his young friend, a female :
