Wild and Free — Alberta’s Wild Horses There is something incredibly powerful about encountering Alberta’s wild horses in their natural surroundings. During my recent time photographing these magnificent animals in the rolling foothills of the Rockies, I was struck by how different each horse seemed. Some were curious and watchful. Others simply went about their day, grazing and moving through the landscape as they have for generations.

In The "Tall" Grass

A skulk of skunks were digging for grubs in a grassy area in Ottawa just as the evening was starting. The one was part of a skulk of seven -- mom was sleeping in a nearby bush while the babies were out practicing their digging. The kit was barely tall enough to look over nearly freshly cut grass, and sometimes was only able to peer over if there was a dip in the earth.

Two baby skunks digging for grubs in a grassy area in Ottawa just as the evening was starting. The duo was part of a skulk of seven -- mom was sleeping in a nearby bush while the babies were out practicing their digging. Sometimes these two would get too close to each other for comfort to fight over a spot that was hot with lots of grubs, and sometimes they would cooperate and share.
