Somenos Marsh / Lake



Somenos Marsh / Lake runs from right downtown Duncan to North Cowichan looking North East to Richards Mtn. Home to a huge population of birds, reptiles and everything else that likes this kind of environment. Geese are nesting in the middle left side of the picture in the swamp grass.

Farm North Cowichan Pt3

North Cowichan has a multitude of great little farms that grow and raise pretty much everything. Cattle seen in the foreground here.







Rolling Fence Lines make for some interesting photographic lines in the background Sports stadium lights can be seen just left off center under Richards Mtn.







It is a pretty comfortable area to enjoy life.




I was at a Horse Show at Avalon over this last weekend, a nice Equestrian Ctr that does some really good shows.




Avalon has a hundred or so acres of a scenic Eventing Course which draws a bit of a crowd.




A unique farm building.




Vineyards are up and coming all over the Island and North Cowichan is an exceptional area with some award winning vineyards and wine.



View across Valley to Mt Prevost with Equestrian Farm, Sheep, Cattle and Apple orchard in between. Apple trees can barely be seen as the hill rolls up and down.
