Transformations on the shoreline

Campbell River hosts an annual wood carving competition on the shoreline. Numerous huge logs are carved over a week long period, judged and later auctioned off to be displayed in local gardens and businesses. Here are some of this year's creations:

Orcas (my best whale watching photo)
 Very hungry caterpillas
 Mother's Day - very intricate carving on the bears for their fur.
 Leigh and Joel admiring this dragon with a marble (a bowling ball)
 Raven - an important indigenous symbol
Humming bird on roses. Leigh and Jay have a humming bird feeder hanging from the eaves at the back of their house which is visited every day by tiny humming birds whose fast moving wings sound like a buzzing insect.
