Nature break



Bald eagle during a spring snow


It's been a long time since I've written here... and I wonder if anyone has missed me?
But now is as good a time as any, to jump back in and try to continue more frequently :)

 Right now I'm taking this evening off - away from the news and corona virus pandemic storm that has been growing and swirling around us all for the past few weeks, as I start my 3rd week of physical isolation. So that's all I'll say about that right now.

  This is a great time to review/purge and edit my (numerous) photos and to share some of them. I hope you like them :)

Bald eagle & misty mountain

One of our little chickadees- daily visitors most of the year.


Kingfisher by the lake

Song sparrow? Posing ever so briefly.

Stellar's Jay- all puffed up in the backyard.

Varied thrush under the feeder.

Woodpecker- not sure what kind though.

A toad in our creek- late fall (October?)

And that's it for now!
Please add a comment so I know you've been here :)
Keep safe.

An assortment of bird photos.

            I love birds & have some lovely photos of them I'd like to share with you:

Osprey on the nest - Kootenay Lake, BC, Canada
Close up of an osprey in a tree in our yard.
Young ducks & their mom sunning on a log... usually there's turtles here, but not today.
A young flicker that was sleeping under our gas meter... when he realized I was there, he flew away :)




We saw so many blue herons at the seashore... lots of food for them :)

Three young blue herons waiting for dinner, close up.

The elusive blue jay. I didn't even know we had them in this part of Canada :)
