A Canada Goose (Branta canadensis) huddles together on the shoreline of an urban pond in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The abundance of urban flood water ponds has done much in creating beneficial habitat to amy waterbird species including the Canada Goose.

Just a few of the many impressive peaks of the Rockies of Canada seen near Spray Lake in Kananaskis Country.
"The Canadian Rockies are quite different in appearance and geology from the American Rockies to the south of them. The Canadian Rockies are composed of layered sedimentary rock such as limestone and shale, whereas the American Rockies are made mostly of metamorphic and igneous rock such as gneiss and granite.
The Canadian Rockies are overall more jagged than the American Rockies because the Canadian Rockies have been more heavily glaciated, resulting in sharply pointed mountains separated by wide, U-shaped valleys gouged by glaciers, whereas the American Rockies are overall more rounded, with river-carved V-shaped valleys between them. The Canadian Rockies are cooler and wetter, giving them moister soil, bigger rivers, and more glaciers. The tree line is much lower in the Canadian Rockies than in the American Rockies."

Agreed, peaks are more magnificent up north. John Muir said it so well, as they do "call me." Can't wait to return.

Any evening shot from Stanley Park looking at the skyline of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. This is one of my favourite places. I spent a lot of time in this area growing up.

Had my first opportunity this weekend to see and photograph this species. There were about six of them in this forested area in the snow. A lot larger bird than I envisioned. A very handsome bird.
A kayaker's dream scene, I had to pinch myself. The water is constantly changing with the light which makes this place quite magical. Earlier in the day I went for a long swim, I was determined not to squeal getting in like some of the old guys I heard. People were looking at me like I was some kind of strange, cold blooded water creature after I dived in without making a sound. The ice cold water isn't easy to embrace but once in, you don't want to get out, so refreshing on a hot day.

A colorful, energetic warbler of northern forests, the Canada Warbler spends little time on its breeding grounds. It is one of the last warblers to arrive north in the spring, and one of the first to leave in the fall to return to its South American wintering grounds. This steely gray and yellow songbird is sometimes called the "necklaced warbler" thanks to the bold black necklace that it wears across its chest.
Waterfowl such as this Canada Goose (Branta canadensis) must contend with a host of predators during the nesting period. This goose solved the problem of land based predators by nesting in the middle of a wetland and the dense cattail vegetation gives some protection from aerial predators such as crows and ravens but it still needs to guard the nest closely. Whether this nest was successful is an unknown. This wetland was located west of St. Albert, Alberta, Canada.

A photo taken while on Highway 95 in Canada - as a passenger, not the driver! Now posted for the theme "Vanishing point" of Smile on Saturday. When you zoom in, you can see two cars in the distance. Far away ...
My memories of the trip to Canada are very sweet ...
Adult female. The lack of black in the cap and face point away from an adult male, and the visible necklace makes a first fall female unlikely. The gray feathers appear gray (rather than brownish) in the area of the alula, and the greater coverts, as well as the edges of the primaries, further pointing to an adult bird.
