This was one of several shots of least sandpipers visiting Commonwealth Lake. This one was near the walking path in the swamp area.

I stopped by Commonwealth Lake today, and this bull frog was making its way from the main lake to one of the side ponds. Drew a small, socially spaced crowd.

This Great Blue regularly makes an appearance by Commonwealth Lake, affording many opportunities for compositions.

Just an example of the amazing peaks one sees in Alberta's magnificent Kananaskis Country south of Canmore and Banff. I will be making plans to spend more time here.....was most impressed.

 

Your views, faves and comments are always appreciated.

 

Have a wonderful week!

  

A favorite mountain in the Kananaskis. One of many impressive peaks of the Spray Mountain Range in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park, Alberta.

Thanks for taking a peak peek!

May your week be wonderful!

   

The water was running high and the waterfalls on Commonwealth Creek were roaring.

 

Happy Waterfall Wednesday!

This green heron was perched on a branch somewhat near the trail at Commonwealth Lake, but bushes lined the trail. I was able to stick the lens through the foliage to get a clear view without spooking the grand bird.

I walked at Commonwealth Lake yesterday, and soon after I started, I spotted this heron by the bank, watching the lake. It was very tolerant of my presence, so I had plenty of time to line it up between the brances.

Just one of the many amazing peaks in Alberta's impressive Kananaskis Country south of Banff. Peaks galore. I plan on spending more time exploring here. ;-))

 

Hope your weekend is going wonderfully!

  

I got a shot of this lovely golden crowned sparrow next to Commonwealth Lake.

I was at Commonwealth Lake Saturday morning, and there wasn't much going on; the green heron were out, but mostly preening, and the kingfisher were making occasional passes, but not many. Finally, just before I left, this belted kingfisher took flight from the other side of the lake, then turned for a pass along the far shore. This shot was soon after it departed the tree.

This green heron was perched, ready to strike. The algae was still covering Commonwealth Lake when I shot this in August, but that didn't seem to prevent the heron from seeing its prey.

There are a number of lovely waterfalls on Commonwealth Creek.

 

Happy Waterfall Wednesday!

One of the many lovely little waterfalls along Commonwealth Creek near Snoqualmie Pass.

This Blue Heron was poised to capture any fish within reach. At Commonwealth Lake.

En Esperanto: la biciklistoj estas Sean Flynn (el Skotlando), Geraint Thomas (el Kimrujo) kaj Daryl Impey (el Respubliko de Sud-Afriko). Daryl gajnis la medalon de arĝento.

 

Sean Flynn (Scotland), Geraint Thomas (Wales) and Daryl Impey (Republic of South Africa). Daryl went on to win the silver medal in this race. Sean did very well, finishing 10th - a rider for the future perhaps.

This location in Canberra Australia has been done to death by photographers and it's easy to see why. This is my take on the "famous" bridge that straddles Lake Burley Griffin at sunrise.

The Australian Parliament House can be seen in the middle of the frame and where the bridge spans meet.

The creek is low, but the waterfalls were still lovely. We took the old PCT up the Commonwealth Basin, and dawdled a bit taking photos of the waterfalls while we waited to see if the heavy fog would lift, as the weather prognosticators predicted.

 

Explored.

The mall (in the old-fashioned sense) on Commonwealth Avenue in the Back Bay. The statue is of John Glover, a brigadier general in the Revolutionary War.

Commonwealth Avenue is a major road in Canberra, Australia. It connects Civic with South Canberra. Specifically, it runs between City Hill and Capital Hill. The first Commonwealth Avenue Bridge was constructed in 1928. It replaced a ford across the Molonglo River. The road is six lanes wide with a wide median down the middle. It crosses Lake Burley Griffin over the Commonwealth Bridge

A little art from me :)

 

The moon was there... It was just smaller and maybe was not full :)

This Gadwall is in his full mating colors, and had attracted a lovely female. He was playing coy here, though, ignoring her! Near Commonwealth Lake.

many thanks for all your visits, favs or comments
