Dozens of Canada Geese enjoy a swim in the lake or a stroll on the lawn before taking flight to head down south.
Lots of Canada Geese flying up, exposed below….
Canada Geese / branta canadensis. Straws Bridge, Derbyshire. 25/01/21.
Walking across the frozen surface of my local lake. The winter light was beautiful, as were the reflections that afternoon.
Now more than ever we have to be grateful for the little moments and big moments when the world is losing so much. I love being up here it makes me forget everything except for what is presented before my very eyes.

This is my nephew, Ben, clearing the frozen river for skating on New Years Day 2014.
I have posted the photo previously (see Comment section), but I have since removed one other distracting person from the photo and otherwise reprocessed the image a bit, I think it makes it more effective. I like it anyway.
I wish it were a bit tighter on Ben, but I wanted to keep the overhead wooden footbridge in the frame ... and as a frame too, I guess.
A certain someone has succeeded in doing something no Canadian leader has been able to do in my lifetime: unite the country. Not even hockey has gotten us all this riled up all at once. As places created by drawing imaginary lines go, this one is not so bad. We may have a long way to go to be a truly just society, but I hope we will get there together. Go Canada! Elbows up!

Few people move to Canada for Canadian winters (perhaps they visit to ski!), but summers and fall here in Canada are pretty fantastic. I love those long evenings when the sun meanders over the horizon instead of racing (as it does in winter). I captured the last bit of the day here by crouching low so that the rocks and tree on the left side would create a natural frame from this scene. The lovely color is just a fabulous bonus! This image was Explored at position 193. Thanks for the support!

Challenge #33 Night Photography. This is a shot of Canadian lights as seen from the United States side of the St. Lawrence Seaway. We miss our neighbors to the north.
Having received a much needed "bath" from morning showers an hour prior, the nose of the leader on 507 looks slightly less scabby than normal. CN 2522, one of the last remaining unique Canadian cabs lads L50711 08 past the bucolic farmland at the Milford/Shubenacadie town line on June 8, 2024. It remains to be seen if any of the original Dash 9s will be part of the AC rebuild program or not, so shoot them while you can! Oh yes, a happy Canada Day to all of my Canadian followers.
Canada warblers are bright, vividly colored birds. The species is nicknamed “the necklaced warbler” because of the unique ring of bluish-black markings around an otherwise yellow breast and throat. Canada warblers have no wing bars and have white under-tail coverts. They feature a yellowish-white ring of color around the eye that creates a spectacle-like marking that is very distinguishable. Canada warblers are remarked to always have a surprised look because of these spectacle markings. They have gray backs and matching wings that fade to black around the crown.
Taken at Gilkicker point in Gosport. The Canada Geese that migrate here are from Canada or Greenland they have pale bellies. The Canada Geese that are on the east coast arrive from Northern Russia and have dark bellies.
As the sun peeked over the fells behind it reflected in the mist and on the lake. It had the appearance of a fire as the geese sauntered by feeling it's warmth but not getting cooked!
