Peekaboo! A Hidden screech Owl's Curious Glance Photo Caption:
A curious Eastern Screech-Owl plays a little game of peekaboo, peering out from the safety of its cozy tree hollow. Perfectly camouflaged against the rugged bark, this secretive little owl reveals just enough of its face to keep a watchful eye on the world outside. Its striking golden eye catches the warm afternoon light, creating a magical moment in nature. Sometimes, the most unforgettable wildlife encounters happen when nature gives us only a little glimpse of its hidden beauty.

Golden-crowned kinglets are such flighty birds that I'm always surprised/amazed/lucky when I get a photo that's actually in focus!!

Where Silence Comes to Rest
Barred Owl — St-Bruno, Quebec, Canada At dawn, a particularly active Barred Owl moved from perch to perch, offering me precious moments of observation. I watched and followed her movements from a respectful distance, secretly hoping she would eventually land on an old tree trunk that had caught my eye. Then, as if nature had decided to grant me that very moment, she settled there, fully in the open. Bathed in the soft morning light and surrounded by the warm colours of autumn, she gave me the composition I had been dreaming of capturing for so long. A moment of stillness and beauty, where patience, respect for the owl’s natural rhythm, and the simple joy of observing wildlife came together in an unforgettable encounter.

Juvenile Bald Eagles
Exploring the Knight Inlet just off the coast of British Columbia. I spotted a group of Juvenile Bald Eagles taking a moment to dry off as they spent the morning along the shore eating dead salmon. Nothing goes to waste around here!
On the Lookout
On some of my lunch breaks, I was lucky enough to come across the family of black bears, a momma with three cubs. The cubs were keeping her busy, especially during the time when she was wanting to rest. Some of her cubs were resting already, one was being curious and this momma would poke her head up every time she heard a vehicle go by, she was always on alert. Clinton BC
Curious George
During my wildlife safari based out of Vancouver Island we spotted a mom and two cubs digging up roots. We got to observe them wrestle for almost an hour. In this frame is one of the two male cubs. They were walking toward us and you can see that he’s both curious and cautious.
All Eyes On You
On some of my lunch breaks, I was lucky enough to come across the family of black bears, a momma with three cubs. The cubs were keeping her busy, especially during the time when she was wanting to rest. They were all up in a tree, a couple of the cubs already off napping, but this one was just as curious of me, as I was of it. Such an adorable moment spent with this little one. Clinton BC
Hiding in Plain Sight
We have so many Goldfinches near our home, the most I have seen here before. I just love their personalities and how vocal they are to one another. I was really hoping for one to land in the apple tree that still had beautiful foliage left on it. It didn't take long for one to fly to the tree and rest on the leaves, it was perfect. Clinton BC
The Look
My husband and I were visiting my family on Vancouver island and my brother took us out on a logging road to look for some chanterelle mushrooms. Once we had picked some, we took a road he hasn't driven on yet, and that's when we saw an owl swoop down in front of us. It was raining on and off, and quite dark in the forest, but I managed to sneak a few photos of the owl as it sat in one of the trees beside us in the truck. Vancouver Island, BC
Lynx meets dipper
The meeting is coincidental and ends with the Canada Lynx jumping the opening in the creek to gain the shore. The dipper didn’t move. Both animals are not at least interested in each other. It is not uncommon to encounter lynx along the highways. We came across this animal in a different way. On this day in March we snowshoed along Jarvis river to photograph American Dippers. They take advantage of open water to gain access to insect larvae they hunt for on the bottom of the creek.. While I was looking around I noticed an animal crossing the snow and ice covered creek. Quickly I brought my camera up and was able to capture pictures before the lynx in relaxed matter went up the river bank and disappeared in the forest. It was a brief encounter but sharing close proximity with this cat felt very special. I love how the animal places its big paw gentle on the snow just as if it would sneak up on the bird.
