None of those things around here, otherwise I'd be spending hours trying for a comparable shot... I'll settle on the struggle with bees...
According to the Holy Book Wikipedia, their range does extend to BC, but maybe the population is so sparse you don't see them. I don't think I ever saw (or at least noticed) one until 2014.

I’ve seen one in Fairbanks Alaska, last summer or two years ago I think. It was the first time I had ever seen one and I was, to put it mildly, alarmed and surprised to see a GIANT BEE looking thing in our roses. A quick google search calmed my fears and sent be scurrying for my camera but by then the thing was gone.

Thanks Basie - they do work well together. Those two songbird pics were major crops and handheld - I'm sometimes surprised at what I can get away with. At the same time the combination can be slow to lock focus, and intervening vegetation can be a problem, but when it works it can be very rewarding.

Nice Des.
It is a bit ugly half way between costumes.
But doesn’t detract from you image.
