This Coyote was out hunting for voles or rats or whatever they can find to eat .Every winter I head out looking for coyotes because during winter months they have their full thick coat that makes them look awesome.

On The Hunt

Barn Owl on the hunt for voles or rats & rabbits & snakes. They hunt during early mornings or at dusk. I lucked out and got my first barn owl in flight.

Food For The Eaglets

Bald Eagle Female caught this rabbit and brought it to the nest to feed her eaglets, exactly what I was hoping for & sometimes you have to wait for hours so patience is a must, Every spring I scout out for eagles nest that are active. Many nest they use every year get destroyed by wind storms or the whole tree falls down & they have to rebuild to a new spot. Some remain strong and standing for years

Snow Goose Migration at Boundary Dam Reservoir

I was down by the lake, and a fisherman was driving his boat along the shoreline. I don’t know if he came around the corner and didn’t see the geese, or if the geese saw him first, but they got spooked and took off. They didn’t go far, they just moved down the lake about a kilometre, but it was something to see. I’d never seen anything like that before. Probably hundreds of thousands of birds all taking off at the same time. It was quite mesmerizing, actually.

The Chase

Black Bear chasing wild chum salmon in a local creek. During the fall I head out with my camera gear and I look for black bears catching salmon in the creeks & rivers. This particular day this black bear was chasing & trying to catch the salmon. I use my telephoto 600 mm lens for reach.

Last Spring it was quite exciting to see this rare Western Grebe in Dryden, Ontario. Lying close to the centre of Canada this western friend was much welcomed by the locals
