I saw this guy land on a light post and then fly into the trench. I took a few pictures of him in the trench when he suddenly flew up beside me just long enough for me to get these two pictures.

Lovely! I’ve seen blue herons in the City (University of Waterloo campus), but not hawks.

That is a red-tailed hawk. We see those, Cooper’s and Sharp-shinned behind our house in the Stanley Park area.

There is a red-tailed hawk that I occasionally see either on the Laurel Trail next to the LRT tracks or on Columbia. Here's a picture from April 2025.
