However, it’s not a good idea to pick these guys up. After all, they do carry rabies. Super unlikely that you’d contract it, but given that rabies tends to be nearly universally fatal, it’s not really worth the risk.
Nice to have lots of them around though. You can thank bats for the Okanagan’s relatively mosquito free environment.
Seems like they’re becoming a bit more regular. We’ve had a few epic storms in the past couple of years, but this one really hit Kelowna hard. Not too much rain in Peachland luckily. Just these incredible views of sunset, rainbows, and lightning. I’ve been trying to get lightning shots for a while now, glad to have finally captured some.
Well, with tours a bit slow this summer, I may as well get some family time in. At least we’re getting a summer. It’s been pretty wet and cool out west this year.
Now it’s our dog trying to stay wet and cool. Like all Border Collies, she’s a total spaz around water. She’s trying to bite all the waves as they come into the beach.
Meanwhile my own little monkey is doing her part to make sure that the lake doesn’t fill up with rocks. Good work, honey.
She’s also exercising the pipes with this awesome public performance at the local karaoke night.
She’s a party girl, in a party world….
