Friday was our last full day in Calgary. I wanted to go hiking at Fish Creek Provincial Park. I followed the GPS to the entrance and started to walk, then I had to go to the washroom. None were open in the area I was walking. The swimming areas were closed for the season and so was all access to washrooms. So, I had to leave after only a very short walk. I ended up going to Winners (they always have a washroom) and buying a pair of earrings and glasses. I couldn’t figure out other accesses to the park and had promised I would be back by noon so…
But I did get to see a Northern Flicker, 2 great horned owls and a Downy Woodpecker. I would never have seen the Great Horned Owls if not for the generous birders on the trail.
