So, expect snow then...even if it’s 30 degrees and sun on the east side of Vancouver island.

Perfect. There's a few floaters out there now, but I can add more if the beaver doesn't beat me to it...First picture is Drosera rotundifolia
Second picture is Drosera anglica
You can grow these fairly easily as long as you have the right conditions, full sun, exposed floating logs or considerably moist open peaty soil. I will have a plethora of seeds of Drosera rotundifolia the hardiest of the two if anyone is interested, and some plants for you Seapotato.
Some of mine I grow.

Seapotato you need to get some floating fir logs stabilized so they don’t roll in your pond for the plants as the edges are too weedy and would shade out the sundews from what I have seen. Like these logs from oliphant lake that last for several years before they sink, the lower they get the better the habitat, sundew seed floats so they are always colonizing new logs.

ha. for a moment thought that was my shaggy aussie but she probably never met a bull frog. it is frog and toad breeding time though so they are moving around.Those are the kinds of fly eaters I want to get going in our pond.
Currently we have these assholes. ( and I am referring to BOTH assholes. )
Ha, they do share a bit of a look. Think ours might be smaller, she's only about 28 lbs but it's hard to tell under all that fur.ha. for a moment thought that was my shaggy aussie but she probably never met a bull frog. it is frog and toad breeding time though so they are moving around.

I think every cruiser head on the island already knows where he lives.Steve's place is easier to find... once you're in the right area, just drive around the drive till you smell(see) his cruiser graveyard. I'm sure most of us can sniff out a rotting cruiser carcass from a mile away.
His place is even visible in google maps.
