    Last day in Calgary

    August 6, 2024 in Canada ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

    We visited the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary, a large expanse of land along the Bow River in the city of Calgary. We browsed along trails, spotting a lot of waterfowl and an egret, among others. Very scenic.

    Yesterday, we strolled along Calgary's historic district downtown. Today, we went to Prince's Island Park, nestled next to downtown in a crook of the Bow River. We liked the many pedestrian bridges connecting downtown to the island, and connecting the island to the residential neighborhoods across the river. Another beautiful area!

    Such wonderful foresight and historic conservation of both extensive lands - the Bird Sanctuary and Prince's Island.
