White-tailed Deer
I don’t go out of my way to photograph the many deer in the Beaver Valley as I figure that they are better off being afraid of people and steering wide of gardens, cars, and people in general. I do love watching them and seeing the little ones in the spring and getting to recognize family units, who are the leaders and which guard the young, I find it really interesting. We had a small family live for many years in our apple orchard until they became hunted and I really miss them, so I was thrilled to see a new herd visit. This beautiful herd was right at home. Using my car as a blind I quietly rolled down the driveway to a good vantage point … of course they noticed the rolling car and gazed my way briefly before departing back into the...

A flight to Tobermory
It was a perfect day… a flight to Tobermory for a bike ride and a snack, and returning under the stars. Magical. Thanks Werner, it was fantastic.
DeCew Falls
My son Chris rows for Trent University, the Canadian Championships was held at the PanAm site in St. Catherine’s, Henley Island. It’s a long drive to cheer like only a mom can … for about 30 seconds. So a side trip to DeCew Falls between races was in order. No-one told me how long the hike is, or how muddy and treacherous. When I got to this falls, I might have looked puzzled as it wasn’t what I was expecting. Nope the big falls was even more difficult to get to … I’ll save that one for another day and bring ropes etc. I took a couple of selfies to celebrate the hike, and returned to cheer on...

Loon feeding the youngsters
Well I did a U turn today and went from the original plan to photographing loons. I was glad I did. Have a look at the size of fish the parent is attempting to feed the juvenile, it was relatively huge, yet it gulped it down!...
