Merry Island Lighthouse marks the southeast entrance to Welcome Passage, between Thormanby Islands and the southwest side of Sechelt Peninsula.

It consists of a square base, with a tower (12 metres (40 feet) in height) rising from the corner of the building. Two red maple leaves, sculpted in relief, add to the visual interest of the lighthouse.

Behold – the Eastern Grey Squirrel starring me down in Ottawa.

Black squirrels are melanistic grey squirrels, just like a black panther is to a leopard. The black ones are said to be slightly more tolerant of cold and camouflage better in thick forest.
