Flight and Ice

Northern Gannets are amongst the first seabird colonies to return to the cliffs on the island of Newfoundland arriving in mid April. Being one of first humans to welcome them back at Cape St. Mary's Ecological reserve I was surrounded by cliffs filled with towering cliff ice creating a "cool" background for the soaring gannets. The icy spectacle didn't last long as tons of mammoth ice pieces broke free in the warmth of the morning sun crashing into the rocks and waves below filling the cove with a thundering finale.

The Monarch Butterfly Tree

I was walking in Big Creek National Wildlife Area one early evening in late August and got to see a collection of migrating Monarch's all resting on this branch. I looked it up after and learnt this is called a roosting. Shot on my Fuji X100V

Dragonfly Shadow

I saw the shadow of this dragonfly under the leaf and quickly took the photo. I love how the light and sun allowed for a lovely silhouette of the dragonfly and the softness in the greens. I quickly took the photo with my Fuji X100V and a split second after the dragonfly flew away. I was so happy to be able to capture this moment.
