The urban park ponds and outside marsh habitats are well on the way to thawing now. I am happy to photograph ducks again.
Grandin Pond. St. Albert, Alberta.
A distant shot and big crop, but nice to catch this parent with one of its four chicks.
Sturgeon County, Alberta.
The Avocets are massing up now. As you can see, they are loosing their rusty colour with some already in winter plumage.
This image does not do justice to the number of birds I saw there. There were at least two thousand. I just got tired of counting after that :)
My first of the season. The deep curve of the bill identifies this one as a female.

A last look at this very rare Warbler for this location. It was a delight to see and photograph this one. It was very energetic, acrobatic. and hard to photograph. It hasn't been seen for a couple of days now. I hope it took advantage of unseasonal warm temps and winds and will make it to a safe place to spend the winter.

Cryptic Plumage
Brown Creepers can seem to disappear against a tree trunk as they move up from base. I like the feather detail in this shot which is best seen if the zoom tool is used.
Edmonton, Alberta
Petersburg, Virginia was a very interesting city; Old town looked like a ghost town. It was quite strange and it felt like we were in the Twilight zone. But I really liked the looks of this antique store.
The field around a barn in the small town of Latah, Washington is frequently adorned with old trucks and cars. When we stopped to photograph the scene, a man came out of a nearby house, opened the gate and invited us in to continue shooting. He said he and another neighbor like to display their collection of old vehicles near this barn.
Happy Truck Thursday!

Four duck species have been breeding in Hawrelak Park for several decades. American Wigeon, Mallard, Lesser Scaup, and Common Goldeneye all raise young there.
All four species seem quite habituated to humans.

Alexis Diner
A busy dinner time visit to Alexis in Newburgh with a parking lot full of cars turns out to be an "empty" spot through the view of a 13mm Lens.
Notice the lovely reflection of the setting sun.

A very rare sighting here. This young Whooping Crane was spotted by several people in a marsh north west of Edmonton, and the word got around quickly. I was at the right place and time today to get this shot as it flew by me to land on a field where has been foraging a long distance away from the road I was standing on.
This is a young non-breeding individual that did not go up to Wood Buffalo National Park, or is taking his sweet time to get there. No urgency for it.
The whooping Crane's primary natural breeding ground is Wood Buffalo National Park, in Canada's Northwest Territories and Alberta.
They winter in the coastal marshes of Texas, particularly in the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge.

At first glance, this might look like part of a large flock of Snow Geese, but they are American Avocets in winter plumage.
Cooking Lake in Central Alberta has long been known as a major staging area for American Avocets during migration.
This shot is one I took there at the end of August in 2022, but never processed. The entire flock was estimated at about 5,000 by biologist Dick Dekker who just completed a 15 year study of the Avocets of Cooking lake.
