In Ontario right now and throughout the world in what will clearly be an historic time, we are being urged to 'stay home' and practice 'social distancing', a term we never faced in our lifetime but is clearly now part of our collective vocabulary. I'm not going to the cottage, I'm not going to any... Continue Reading →
Fellow bird fans will likely have experienced this kind of adventure. The camera gear is double-checked and ready, a new spot has been chosen to visit, and a lot of research has been done into the kind of territory it is, the habitat and features selected carefully. On this trip, I was determined to scour... Continue Reading →
A visit to Pretty River Provincial Park over Christmas holidays 2019.
Today on the way farther north I was so excited given the sunny weather and warmer temperatures, to take a look around in Simcoe County for owls. Some solid efforts at looking turned out to be well worth the time, as we found 2 Snowies during our travels. To find these beauties you need to... Continue Reading →
During a warmer than seasonable Sunday in December, it was high time to get out for a local hike. Of course my go-to spot for this is along the Etobicoke Creek.

When I find a good productive place to explore, I find myself returning over and over, each time looking in a different area. This weekend, the sun was shining early on Sunday, so off I went. The destination was the Humber Arboretum, where I was pretty sure I'd find a Saw-Whet owl (and sure enough... Continue Reading →
The day was overcast, so instead of trying to catch birds in the shade, a trip was made to Allan Gardens in downtown Toronto, a place I'd heard and read about, but never been. In short, do yourself a favour and go! In sub-zero weather, I enjoyed shooting indoors in a lavishly planted series of... Continue Reading →
