Spirit Squirrel

Finding this white squirrel was almost like finding a shiny Pokémon in real life, only about twenty times rarer! Leucism is an incredibly rare genetic mutation causing white or pale fur while keeping normal dark eyes. The odds of a red squirrel being born with it? Roughly 1 in 100,000. But nature stacks the deck even further against it. Without its natural colours providing camouflage against dark evergreen bark, a leucistic squirrel stands out like a neon sign to predators like hawks, coyotes, and owls — making it exceptionally rare for one to reach adulthood in the wild. With all that in mind, watching a full-grown adult thrive in the wilderness is nothing short of incredible.

Eastern Screech Owl

Eastern screech owls are relatively common in Ontario, yet they're seldom seen. Roughly the size of a robin and seamlessly blended into the tree bark, I couldn't believe my luck finding this little one sound asleep right above me! A small, isolated population also resides in a tiny pocket of southeastern Alberta along the river valleys. I haven't managed to spot one down there yet, but hopefully soon!

Palm Warbler

Don't let the tropical name fool you! Known for their characteristic tail-wagging, palm warblers were named after the Caribbean palms where they spend the winter. Come spring, however, these hardy songbirds migrate far north to nest in Canada’s boreal bogs.

Autumn Forest

The Real Boss of Canadian Wilderness

Paddling deep into the quiet back-country of Algonquin on a canoe trip, while the noise of world hushed, while I listened to the sound of the paddle in the water—and there he was. Standing knee-deep in the marsh, this magnificent bull moose felt like a living Megafauna of the northern woods. Looking into his soulful eyes, time completely stopped; in that sacred, untamed silence, it felt as though the true heartbeat of the Canadian wilderness was looking right back at me. An experience I cherish everyday!

Beave's stopping to say hello.

Beaver and it's branch

While sitting on the shores of the lake, a beaver swam over and took a branch that was underwater.

Nascent

After an empty-handed drive through Algonquin Provincial Park, irony smiled right near home: a doe and two fawns waiting by the road. I grabbed my camera just in time to capture this precious fawn nestled peacefully in the vibrant green grass. A magical, heartwarming reminder of the beauty of innocence and new beginnings.
