A shy pika, Spruce Grouse and a Canada Jay.
After a summer of heat and smoke, fall comes as a great relief. Cool temperatures, clean air, fall colors – what could be better?
From a recent camping trip.
This was a fun find! Normally, I hear Wilson’s Snipes from far above, winnowing in the Spring to attract a mate. I saw this bird from quite a distance with its bright white belly and I managed to creep in closer for a better view. The closer I got, the more it hunkered down and then when I backed away, it began to stand tall again. These images are all cropped and from a 600 mm lens.
We’ve had some much needed rain this week and it’s beginning to feel like fall, suddenly it seems.
