Sandhill Water Play

Sandhill Cranes have a surprising range of behaviours related to courtship and territory. This adult crane has just pulled up a grass or sedge stem and root and will either drop it or toss it while their mate looks on. The image was made one May morning with the sun just peaking through cloud behind the cranes resulting in a strong backlit effect

A Brown trout jumps the falls on the Humber River

While many people are familiar with the annual salmon run on the rivers in Toronto they aren't the only fish attempting to jump the falls and move upriver. Trout also make the journey upriver, like this Brown trout and unlike salmon their life doesn’t end when the journey is done. They can make multiple trips upriver over several years to spawn.

Autumn on the Humber River

A Chinook salmon attempts to jump the waterfalls on the Humber River in Toronto. This annual autumn event draws many people to watch the salmon move upriver to spawn.

Such a cute zebra with wings in Newfoundland and Labrador. Although widely spread across Canada, we do not find this species in British Columbia. Quel adorable zèbre ailé à Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador. Quoique répandue au Canada, nous ne retrouvons pas cette espèce en Colombie-Britannique.

In his element

I sat back, completely breathless, as this majestic moose appeared right in front of me. Because they are so shy and solitary, the encounter only lasted a few minutes before he vanished back into the deep canopy. Cape Breton highland national park NS

Great Egret taking off

A Great Egret taking off once it noticed another Heron flying above it.

Great Egret migration

The pond was full of Great Egrets one morning, giving me several opportunities to observe their behaviour in a group.

Common Nighthawk

Common Nighthawks everywhere! A wonderful visit to Old Man on His Back Prairie and Heritage Conservation Area in Saskatchewan in June! One of the highlights was seeing Common Nighthawks seemingly everywhere, including this beautifully camouflaged bird resting on a railing at the visitor centre. Such fascinating birds, and what a treat to see so many in one place!
