Winter Coyote
I was walking through a local conservation area on New Years Eve, last year, as a light snow was falling. I looked across the meadow in front of me and saw this beautidul sandy coloured coyote staring abck at me. We watched each other for a few seconds before it silently turned and walked away.
One Extraordinary Night...
It took me years to finally see my first Lynx. When the moment finally arrived I was absolutely elated. I remembered to put down my camera for a minute or two, so I could completely absorb the moment.
Focused
I had a long drive ahead of me to get some summer tires for one of my vehicles, and lucky for me, the place was very close to a spot that I always love checking out when I have the time. I had a little bit of time I could take out of my travels to stretch my legs and take some photos. I was so happy to be out there with my camera, there were so many ducks around and lots of the Wood Ducks were all grouped together and being quite comical. Burnaby BC

Crowned in the Goldenrod
An adult White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) amidst a field full of goldenrod, gorging itself on its bounty of seeds on an early October's afternoon back in 2024. White-crowned Sparrows predominantly dine upon the seeds of wildflowers and grasses, including goldenrod. However, they will also eat grains such as corn, barely, and oats and fruit including elderberries. As well, during the summer months they prey upon a plethora of insects including wasps and caterpillars.
Tender Love
Raising a brood is a full-time job for red-necked grebes, and both parents share the work from the start. They take turns incubating the eggs, carrying the newly hatched chicks on their backs, and making endless diving trips to catch food. While one adult is out foraging, the other stays with the young, keeping them warm and protected. Grebe chicks are surprisingly demanding, and the adults can spend hours diving for fish, insects, and other aquatic prey to keep up. Here, a tender moment is captured with one of the parents feeding their baby.
