My friend Susan Alexander wrote a beautiful poem about moments with sea lions along the shores of Bowen Island and so we worked together to set it to the sea lions and gulls and eagles that inspired her.
Evening light on the west shores of Bowen Island offshore schools of anchovy
Nch’kay or Mt Garibaldi mantled with spring snow rises above Atl’ka7tsem/Howe Sound
Sea lions in a feeding frenzy, surfacing for air before diving as a group on the anchovy school below
The energy and vitality of feeding sea lions
An eagle swooping to catch an anchovy as sea lions hunt nearby
