Downtown Christmas lights

Annual topic which I did a few times before... here, and here for instance, so today will add just a few

Not exactly Christmas illumination, but got this one on my way back to the car and though it would be a worthy ending to the day.

Centennial Square fountain and Ferris wheel

Illumination is up (about 1 month before Christmas but who is counting)

Seagull decided to be a part of the decor

Family life of Great Blue Herons

There is a colony of the Great Blue Herons in the park in middle of the downtown; there are also a lot of them along the shores. I posted some of the photos of the earlier (for instance this and this). They are amazingly fascinating birds, especially during nest building season when the shots below were taken.
