Hanging with a Ponderosa Pine.

We took a hike up Mt. Nkwala, west of Penticton and the Saskatoon bushes were in bloom. Later in the season they will have berries and, although they can be quite tasty, they often dry out quickly with the hot and dry conditions in the Okanagan Valley. As a child I tasted Saskatoon Berries in the Caribou region of BC and remember them as being delicious.

One of the great things about zoos and nature parks, is that they allow us to get close to animals that we would never be able to get close to in the wild... allowing for some very close up photos such as this one.

This bald eagle shot was taken at the Saskatoon Forestry Farm.

Prince Albert National Park in central Saskatchewan, Canada and is located 200 kilometres north of Saskatoon. Though declared a national park March 24, 1927, it had its official opening ceremonies on August 10, 1928 performed by Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King. The park is open all year but the most visited period is from May to September.

These blossoms are in full bloom here in South Okanagan Valley. Not the prettiest bloom but a welcome sight in spring, nevertheless. The Saskatoon berries that follow can be delicious but are often dried out before we can get to them in this dry climate.

Train stop along the way in Saskatoon.

I think these are Saskatoon Blossoms but not sure. The dried berries at the end of the branches look like Saskatoons.
