Undeterred

A black bear rises from the river after an unsuccessful strike, water flying from its head in a frozen arc. Already scanning for its next meal, it pivots toward the current, undeterred. The moment captures both effort and resilience in motion.

Moment of Mischief

A black bear sits in the river, salmon between its paws, lips loose and teeth visible. Its gaze drifts upstream as water glints from its fur. The pause is momentary but alive, hinting at both play and attention in the midst of the river’s flow.

Wing Work

On a sturdy limb above the river, a bald eagle tends to a broken feather, preening methodically. Neck craned, beak pinching the delicate plume, it restores its wings with quiet determination. Even in moments of stillness, survival is an ongoing task.

Baby Elk

Tethered

In the river, a lone seagull’s wing is entangled in fishing line Each stroke strains against the tether, the tension captured in the wing as it lunges struggling to regain freedom. The scene holds a quiet sorrow, the bird’s effort evident in every ripple.

Surface and Shadow

A single salmon fin breaks the river’s surface, slicing through water alive with movement and light. Around it, hundreds of fish continue their upstream journey, navigating current and resistance. In this brief emergence, the larger migration reveals itself. Quiet, persistent and unfinished.

The Moose is Loose

A moose runs freely through the snow into the forest.

What are you looking at!?

An Elk in Jasper stares at me angrily as if asking what are you looking at!?

Unmoved

Seated in the middle of the river, a black bear pauses mid-meal and looks up from its fish. The moment stretches as it meets the viewer’s gaze; still, assessing, unmoved. For an instant, the river goes silent, and the distance between observer and observed disappears.

Pouting Paws

As rain falls on the late October salmon run two black bears find themselves seated next to one another. Following a number of unsuccessful fishing attempts one bear attempts to steal another bear's fresh catch. Unwilling to part with his fish, the successful bear feasts while his hungry opponent sits and sulks.

Big Beautiful Eyes

A Northern Saw-whet Owl perched quietly during my afternoon walk in a city park, its bright eyes watching the world pass by in silence.

Trivial Turkey Vultures

In the canopy above the salmon-filled river these turkey vultures squabble over the best perch on a single limb. Vying for the preferred vantage point despite a plethora of fishy scraps left by larger predators below. The feathered fight cuts through an otherwise tranquil scene.

Full Moon Eve

On the eve of the Hunter’s Full Moon at Dinosaur Provincial Park, we watched the moon rise above the hoodoos, casting its light over our campground as we enjoyed the night by the campfire.

One Among Seven

A female Mallard surrounded by males, navigating the icy currents of the Bow River.

Steamy Lake

It was a chilly -25°C morning at Vermilion Lakes in Banff, with the lake half frozen.

When the owl has an eye on your holiday leftovers

This photo was taken Christmas day. It appears the owl has a watch on our Christmas leftovers.

Stepping Stones

After feasting on some salmon upriver this black bear moves from boulder to boulder along a natural pathway to its next meal. Midway across the bear stops transfixed on a deeper fishing pool. Paused. Pensive. Poised.
