Saw this coyote crossing a field yesterday near Niagara Falls.

The coyote tries to assess the danger of me standing there.  He was not taking any chances and trotted away shortly after I took the picture.  March 10, 2015 @ 6:22 pm  Cloudy, low light.

The Moon and Venus tonight shared the sky.


We were at the Pendale Plaza tonight and got this shot of the Moon and Venus. The "M" is for Mars which would be in the picture be it not for the fact I took this picture with my cellphone... (or else Mars is hiding behind it's namesake letter) At least the skies stayed clear after sunset.  Hope you got to see them sharing the sky tonight!

Red-bellied Woodpecker, new visitor to the feeder.


A nice looking woodpecker - first one I've seen around here in Niagara.  Most welcome to become a regular visitor to the feeder.

The 'Artful' Female Mallard Duck


Shooting duck pictures at Happy Rolph's (as all other creatures were absent this day).
Tried for a more artful approach capturing the movement of rings in the water.
What do you think?

Shells on the beach


Waverly Beach in Fort Erie has large masses of these little shells washed up on the sands of the beach.  A lot of geometric designs and colours.  It was a 'crunchy' walk.

White-tailed deer, aptly named.


October 04, 2014
Out for a ride near Apsley.  The deer were plentiful and not too skiddish allowing me to grab a bunch of pictures.

Pileated Woodpecker


While camping at #Charleston Lake Provincial Park we stopped in a small bay to listen for wildlife when this pileated woodpecker flew in and landed about 10' from the shore on this rotting birch.  We were able to watch it for about a half hour. The bugs must have been plentiful.  Will post a video on my youtube channel.  He/she was very focused on the task at hand!
