Springtime Snow Buntings

Snow Bunting ground feeding in April.

Stand my ground

Yellow Rumped warbler on the shores of St. Josephs Channel.

Sunrise Serenity

First light kissing the cliffs of Cape Blomidon while the Memorial Church at Grand-Pré National Historic site stands quietly in the morning shadow.

In flight

Pair of geese heading to harbour in Lake Huron.

Springtime

Islands and land disappear in the early hours of a spring day. The ice is only a week out of harbour in Lake Huron.

Quiet Moments

Exploring the rugged shoreline of the Khutzeymateen. Black and white brings out every texture of this young bear's thick coat and the weathered timber beneath its paws.

BEAST South of Elkhorn MB

June 7, 2026 Tornado Warned Storm between Kirkella & Cromer MB Canada WHAT A BEAST South of Elkhorn MB (6:15pm) This day was filled with WILD Structure and a LOT of frustration haha! Environment Canada had issued a level 4/4 EXTREME RISK of severe thunderstorms for the Southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba border where powerful supercells with tornadoes were expected. This was the first extreme risk in 8 years! For me, models were suggesting a couple areas of play before the storms lined out to a MASSIVE Squall Line. I chose Moosomin. The other area was more S towards the Border. My plan of this chase was a little different for me as I had to be at a Apt in Regina early the next day so planned to chase the storms (models suggested NE) towards Riding Mountain Park and then call it a day and head home early. The Storms struggled a great deal to get started. Finally there was a cell between Kirkella and McAuley MB and off I went! It was short lived and began weakening - mean while Storms around Wroxton, Calder and Togo became Tornado Warned! I seen a Cell to my South was really growing so off I blasted down towards Elkhorn and South! WHAT A BEAST! Absolutely beautiful Storm Structure! Stayed with it as long as I could and then headed to my next target which then died off, followed by the next, so called it a day to head back home. Chasers that stayed with it, closer to the SK/MB/USA Border as this thing turned into a Squall Line got some impressing Gurthy Storm Structure later in the evening/night hours. As night progressed, the Squall Line stretched from Hudson Bay SK to half way through South Dakota! (over 1000 km or 620+ miles) Overall a frustrating day where models and atmosphere were not agreeing, but man that structure I caught made it worth it !

The silent glider / Le planeur silencieux

A Short-eared Owl banks gracefully over the marsh, revealing its impressive wingspan in coastal British Columbia. Un Hibou des marais vire avec grâce au-dessus du marécage, révélant l'impressionnante envergure de ses ailes sur la côte de la Colombie-Britannique.

Where the Big Rams hang out

A herd of very large Bighorn Rams hanging out together overlooking the Colombia Valley. The best time to see the Rams is during the fall rut when the Rams are at their largest and most aggressive as they gather to fight for dominance.
