Sweet Singer
A Song Sparrow is looking around ensuring safety while perched on an open branch near the marshes. I was waiting for the sweet song !
Nutty Affair
An Eastern Gray Squirrel relishes a delicious meal, in the lap of nature.
Power and Perseverance
A bull Caribou moves along the bogs to reunite with its small herd with layers of the Long Range Mountains in the background. But the sparkle in the distant hills is a reminder, these reflections are from the new transmission lines and towers, part of the of the infrastructure of the newest hydro development project in the province that has had major environmental impact. A reminder of the delicate balance we are currently facing in Canada between economical growth and ecological conservation.
Cedar and the berries
Something about the red berry being eaten but the Cedar Waxwing is very enjoy to me.
Very-berry Tasty
An Eastern Gray Squirrel enjoys the snack-time high up in the canopy.
Contemplating
In the thicket, a Bluejay enjoys a quiet moment. Nature's flawless craftmanship is defined in the beautiful plumage.
Ravishing Red
A male Northern Cardinal enjoys the spring afternoon sun sitting idly on a branch. I was captivated by the light and shadow of the new leaves on his red plumage.
Who's Watching Whom?
The day before summer, a bull moose situates himself in a marshy ditch munching on vegetation and keeping himself hydrated sipping on salty marsh water off the side of Hwy. 60 in Algonquin Park. He was unbothered by the company but would sometimes look up to check in on my location. We stayed with each other for a couple of hours and was also visited by a younger bull who was still growing in his rack. My photos were taken with a long telephoto lens. It's important to keep distance with moose as they can grow nervous and be unpredictable, sometimes lashing out. This was a lucky encounter with a moose who seemed to be having a good day and a photographer who engaged in ethical wildlife photography practices.
Fuzzy Io
This is the fuzzy end of an Io moth. Though the hindwings are usually what give people pause in this species, I chose to photograph the head, focusing on the hairy head, thorax, and legs.
Salamander silhouette
A larval salamander rests on a leaf. I carefully backlit the leaf - without disturbing the salamander and keeping everything submerged - to get this picture.
Raindrop newt
This eastern newt was out exploring a pond one rainy night, perhaps looking for a meal.
Salamander larva
This salamander larva is close to hatching but still in its egg. The external gills and two balancers (rods on either side of the head that provide support until the legs develop) are visible.
Delighted at Dusk
A vixen returns to her kits at the end of day. As I watch these reunions the familiarity the emotions of a young childs delight after a mother return is almost human like. It is near impossible to be part of these experiences and not feel the connection as wild families like these allow me to observe often with trust and understanding that our world is shared and deeply interconnected.

The Side Hustler
A high-speed study capturing an Atlantic White-sided Dolphin (Lagenorhynchus acutus) calf surfacing in tight echelon formation alongside its mother in the Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick. Photographed using a Nikon D7100 with a Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6 lens, the horizontal composition details the calf riding the mother's hydrodynamic wake with its pectoral fin extended, preserving crisp water spray and native sensor textures to ensure premium print fidelity without software smoothing.
