That was taken last January from the bird sanctuary in Ladner.

Probably the same ones that terrorized Nina and I last July. :o

here is a better photo.

You can also see them up pitt river by the rock quarry (supposedly, as I have never seen one there).  I saw a bunch of those things when I was just outside of yellowknife this summer.  They look like weirdo emus or something when you aren't expecting to see them.
