Spinnaker, the dolphin, died last Thursday. He was at least 25 years old. Now, the aquarium has two more dolphins, Hana and Helen. It would be nice if they can have a male dolphin in near future.

I've heard that penguins are coming to Aquarium in this spring. I somehow found out where they are going to be. It is the back of the Aquarium where people can peek animals for free. I wonder how penguins are displayed there. It is still under construction.

taganimal,

Vancouver Aquarium's major construction seems to be started. They have finished a new entrance, and now they are preparing to dig out the ground. One of my favourite trees, hazelnut, was cut down. However, this is the process... there will be upgraded aquarium in Vancouver in several years.

Finally, I encountered with Burrow Owl! I was wondering around the woods near the aquarium, then he/she was there sitting on a tree branch. It was around 2 pm in the afternoon. But, I did not bring my camera! I did not want to miss this opportunity, so I asked a couple walking near me to take a picture. The very kind gentleman took the picture and send it to me. So here it is!

I went to Vancouver Aquarium last week. I saw a new showcase of pacific herring. Black monkeys were also very cute.

During the holiday season, electric eel was displayed as an energy source for the Christmas tree at Vancouver Aquarium. The middle part of the christmas tree sometimes flashes. Those are the lights which the eel is lighting up.
