Beauty in the Ordinary

A common American Robin in a common setting that makes for a beautiful image.

Golden Girls

A pair of female Goldeneye ducks seem to pose for the camera.

Sunbathing

A pretty Dragonfly sunbathing on a tree in the late afternoon.

Fall Downy

A pretty Downy Woodpecker on a beautiful fall day.

Lunch!

A Great Blue Heron catching and eating its lunch.

Piercing looks

That beautiful moment when you lock eyes with the great gray owl

Water Wanderer

A beaver glides gracefully across the calm water, leaving gentle ripples, as its sleek fur glistens under the morning sun.

Atlantic Puffin

I visited Newfoundland this summer, mainly in search of the puffins. I was casually photographing some puffins off on a distant seastack. Someone nearby gently motioned for me to look straight ahead. I was just as close as I could be with my 600mm lens. I was so lucky to get this shot.

Eye See You

On a walk through a local forest, came across this majestic beauty (Long-Eared Owl) who seemed just as curious about me as I was about it.

Morning beauty

Après de nombreuses recherches, observations et planifications dans le but de faire des photos en contre-jour sur la nidification de la Grèbe jougris, j'ai finalement obtenu les résultats tant rêvés.

La magie de l'automne

Cette année a été bien particulière pour mes images de mon fameux pêcheur. Lors de l'installation de mon affut en mai, je n'avais jamais vu le niveau d'eau aussi élevé. Avec toute cette eau, le marais ne pouvait que m'apporter de belles opportunités dans les prochains mois. En règle générale, les deux dernières semaines de septembre sont mes meilleurs en raison des couleurs qui s'installent dans la végétation qui entoure tout le marais.

Icy Hoots

Stunning Eastern Screech Owl taking shelter from the SW Ontario ice storm. Captured at a local park that I frequent.

Cormorant Colony

I was out looking for Pacific Loons when I came across this picturesque landscape.

Winters Grasp

The winter of 2025 here in Waterloo Region Ontario arrived full on in January, and hung on well into March. I spent many an hour traversing the backroad concessions, looking for a landscape that might convey how all encompassing it was. When I saw this farm, just after another snow squall had subsided, I thought this is the spot.

Chicken of the Wood is ready

This is one of the best specimens of Chicken of the Woods I've ever come across. Even better, the sun was shining through the trees and illuminating this brilliant fungus.

La marche

Grèbe jougris / Abitibi 2025 J'ai eu le privilège d'observer plusieurs facettes des étapes de nidification de cette espèce au cours des années. Il est aussi très rare que l'on puisse voir les grosses pattes de cet oiseau, qui est extrêmement maladroit sur celles-ci.

Breathing in that fresh ocean air

This polar bear was actually smelling for the scent of another bear.

Mom and cub taking a well deserved rest

I took out my wider lens to capture this bucolic scene of a mom and her cub (closest to us) resting on the tundra. The Hudson Bay lowlands are a vast plain area that is one of the most important wetlands on the planet. Migratory birds, in particular, rely on this area for nesting and feeding. When the Hudson Bay polar bears aren't on the sea ice, they spend time in this region.

Checkmate!

A mating pair of Baltimore Checkerspot butterflies choose a quiet blue flag iris leaf to get better acquainted.

Dreams Come True

I went, I saw, I left changed. This was an image I truly wanted to capture and I am sure I can do even better, but I am so grateful to capture the subjects within this simple yet extremely timely image showcasing resilience, ecosystems and the edge of the Arctic.
