Walks through some trails in Victoria BC Canada

My brother Ed has set up a series of videos of his walks through the trails around his hometown, the city of Victoria, BC, Canada, which are available on YouTube He has to-date uploaded 7 videos and they are fun to watch. Please take a look at his videos and subscribe to them.

In each video, he tells a bit of the history of the trail or tells a story or recites children’s poetry. Here are the videos and links to them. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Lake Ida Anne SD 480p Lake Ida Anne and Sechfield trail. The video is taken in Langford a town outside of Victoria. The trail is shot with a time-lapse camera. The walk is short, but it feels like a real forest trail even though houses surround the trail. Lake Ida Anne is a city fishing lake. It is stocked with catchable-sized trout. Children, families and the handicapped can easily fish there. Every year children are taught to fish on this lake.

Esquimalt Lagoon in Colwood close to Victoria, B.C. It is a park and migratory bird sanctuary. Two comments from viewers state: Most interesting and enjoyable. Wonderful storytelling. Your rendition of "Sea Fever" by John Masefield was pleasingly appropriate. A very descriptive video. The scenery is beautiful! Very well done and you are a natural talker!! Good job! Looking for more videos from u!

Still, Lake Video Plus Story This video is a still lake video with the natural sounds of the lake in the background. I will also read the first ten pages of the novel "Li" as the video of the lake continues.

Millstream Creek trail follows the creek through a suburban forest. We pass a school and a playground. There is also a nut tree and a crab apple tree. My favourite part of the trail is the wooden bridge crossing the creek about 3/4 way through the trail. I have included a poem about recycling in the audio.

Upper Thetis Lake trail off of this trail is the Seaborne trail that goes to Munz Road. I also read children's Mother Goose poetry that is updated to include today's world including Covid. This video has good views of the forest.
