Early Spring Colours

Early Spring produces delicate colours that cannot be seen any other time of the year.

Duet

Pete and Paulie are two local bald eagles who have been in the same nest for at least the last ten years.

They spend the winter here and every spring two or three new little bald eagles enter the world in their nest.

Right now it is waiting time and discussions take place.

A conversation happened the other day and I was fortunate enough to be able to eavesdrop.

I’m not sure what the resolution was, but they then turned their backs and gazed off into space.

Flicker

Laurier Woods is a local area readily accessible to town.

It is a little microcosm of Northern Ontario, with bush, rocks, ponds, beaver dams (complete with beaver), all connected by well-marked trails.

Getting lost in the Woods is difficult.

Getting lost in the moments one experiences there is easy.

Grackle In The Grass

Sweetman’s Garden has lots of birds to photograph on most days.

This day was unusual as only a solitary grackle was present when I visited.

But the light was so good that it all worked out just fine.

You Are In My Sights

Osprey

This bird was perched high on the branch very near the nest, calling plaintively over and over.

Hoping that a prospective mate might get curious, I suppose.
