The Aurora was very active behind where I was, but I really loved the reflection off of the tracks when I was facing the opposite direction. I hope to be go back one night, when the Aurora is active again and see if I can remake this shot. I love being out in the complete darkness, only light being from the sky dancing above and the glow of my camera. It does keep you on your toes, as any noise coming from the forest keeps your heart in check.
Great Grey Winter Portrait
It's a full on winters day in Prince Prince and this Great Grey isn't far from my home. Being the larger owl of 2, roosting in the area has me thinking, this is a feamle.
Lizard Lunch
A Northern pygmy owl captures what I assume is a Common Wall Lizard. I spent several hours with this one and the mate.
It's my understanding, the mating season could have actually started a few weeks early. I recently added a photo of the 2 mating, which was at the begining of March.
Dinner for two on the ice
There was also a third Beaver that came out to eat on the ice but it didn't go sit with the other two. I was hoping for all three to sit together. lol!
Byeeeeee!

Photo taken at Lynde Shores. Blue Heron enjoying it's catch
Encre embrasée / Blazing ink
Every evening, the gulls rise towards the embers. A ritual so frequent that it seems inscribed in the reef of the island.
And during this moment... the sky becomes a page, the wind holds the feather and the bird writes.
Then, the sky slowly goes out while turning the page, but the ink still flows in the eyes of the one who read it.
Snowy Owl
Although I have not had many opportunities this winter to get out and scout for Snowy Owls. I have been most fortunate on the three trips I have made this winter, to have seen one on each trip. Usually you can go several times, and not see any. I hope to make one more trip before they head north again. Hopefully my luck holds out.

Perfect condition for lansdcaping in a place I love to go during winter.
King Of The Forest
The Great Grey Owl made a brief appearance on one of the NCC Trails in Ottawa Today
This image was captured on my first evening in Waskaganish in August 2025. The Rupert River flows by in the background.
Short-eared Owl in Flight
A Short-eared Owl flying low over open grassland while hunting. These owls are often seen at dusk patrolling fields and coastal meadows as they search for small mammals. This image was captured as the owl flew directly toward the camera during its evening hunt.
Photographed with a Sony A7R III and Sony 200–600mm lens.
