Dialed into Darkness

Taking advantage of the dark profile of this silver fox, I used a low-key edit to mute the surrondng distractions making the face and eyes grab the viewers attention.

Fluff n Puffin

Rain, drizzle and fog, often reffered to RDF, combined with the chilling temperatures and strong winds of spring are no match for the Atlantic Puffin. Built for harsh marine conditions its feathers provide comforting warmth such as with this one sits outside its borrow on the rugged coastal cliffs.

A Fall Feast

An American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis) that was feasting away on the seeds of a Common Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) on a late September's day last fall. The seeds of native plants and wildflowers like the Common Evening Primrose are a vital part of the American Goldfinch's diet and help sustain the lives of those who fly south on their fall migrations, as well as the lives of those who stay with us throughout the cold winters here.

Evening mood

Working in northern Saskatchewan red foxes are a weekly occurrence. But the cool rare colour phases always catch my eye. This one slipped by as I was environmental monitoring some construction work in the evening. I was lucky to have my camera handy and snuck in a few photos.

Floating Sea Otter

We'd taken a wildlife boat tour from Ucluelet Harbour and gone right out to the edge of the Pacific ocean. In a small inlet, sheltering from the waves was a Sea Otter, calmly floating on its back, wrapped up in kelp to stop it drifting away.

Orcas Surfacing

A pair or of orcas surface and exhale in the sunlight of the Johnstone Strait on the northern edge of Vancouver Island, near Telegraph Cove.

Beaver Splash

I was walking along Spencer Creek between Dundas and Hamilton when I saw a beaver foraging on the opposite river bank. I tried to slowly kneel down and to get a better angle for my shot when it suddenly noticed my presence. I had just enough time to fire off a couple shots, including this one as it first made contact with the water.
