I spend a lot of time in Stanley Park these days. Often I just stick to the seawall, but recently I decided to explore a little deeper, and found myself around Beaver Lake. The cool thing about the animals in Stanley Park is that they are so used to people, you can get right up close to them without scaring them away.

I came across this gentleman just as he was about to go for a swim.
