In the forest's graceful haze,

A gray squirrel twirls and plays,

With nimble paws and eyes so bright,

It dances with elegant delight.

 

Through the branches, it gracefully leaps,

As nature's secrets, it slyly peeps,

Its fur a tapestry of silver and gray,

A vision of beauty along the way.

 

With agile steps and a graceful stride,

It scampers, it glides, and it cannot hide,

Its tail, a feathery plume so grand,

Guiding its path across the land.

 

Among the trees, it finds its bliss,

A creature of charm, it cannot dismiss,

So delicate and full of poise,

Bringing nature's symphony with its voice.

 

Oh, graceful gray squirrel, a marvel to behold,

In your presence, stories unfold,

Through the forest, you silently roam,

A reminder of beauty, wherever you roam.

Behold the enchanting beauty of nature embodied in this charming grey squirrel! ️ With its soft, silver-gray fur and curious, beady eyes, it gracefully navigates the branches, bringing life and energy to the lush greenery of the forest.

 

In this serene moment frozen in time, the squirrel perches atop a sturdy tree limb, its delicate paws clinging effortlessly to the bark. Its fluffy tail acts as a natural balancing tool, swaying gently in the breeze as if in perfect harmony with the surrounding foliage.

 

With remarkable agility and acrobatic prowess, the grey squirrel leaps from branch to branch, exploring its arboreal playground with boundless curiosity. Its inquisitive nature makes it a playful observer of the world, always on the lookout for hidden treasures and tasty treats.

 

As the sun casts dappled light through the canopy, illuminating the squirrel's fur with a touch of ethereal glow, it becomes a living embodiment of tranquility and grace. This captivating creature serves as a reminder of the delicate balance and resilience found in nature's tapestry.

 

In this photograph, the grey squirrel becomes the protagonist of its own tale, inviting us to embrace the wonders of the natural world. Its presence reminds us to pause, appreciate the smaller moments, and celebrate the beauty that surrounds us.

 

Let this image serve as a gentle invitation to explore the enchanting world of grey squirrels and to cherish the remarkable creatures that inhabit our shared planet. May it inspire awe, curiosity, and a deep appreciation for the intricate wonders that exist just outside our windows.

The majestic Grizzly bear! 🐻 Known for their immense size and strength, Grizzlies are one of the most iconic symbols of the wilderness. Found primarily in the western regions of North America, these magnificent creatures are characterized by their distinctive hump on their shoulders and their fearsome set of sharp claws. Despite their powerful appearance, Grizzly bears are typically peaceful and prefer to avoid human interaction. They primarily feed on vegetation, berries, and fish, and their role as apex predators helps maintain the ecological balance of their habitats. Let's cherish and respect these incredible animals and their natural habitats.

Pitt Lake Marina on a cold January day.

Reading the name of the boat.....I am wondering what the owner is 'still waiting' for?

On this blustery day, I know what I am waiting for.......Summer :)

 

The Pitt River in British Columbia, Canada is a large tributary of the Fraser River, entering it a few miles upstream from New Westminster and about 25 km ESE of Downtown Vancouver. The river, which begins in the Garibaldi Ranges of the Coast Mountains, is in two sections above and below Pitt Lake and flows on a generally southernly course. Pitt Lake and the lower Pitt River are tidal in nature as the Fraser's mouth is only a few miles downstream from their confluence.

 

The river was named for William Pitt the Younger. The first mention of the name, as "Pitts River", occurs in the 1827 journal kept by James McMillan of the Hudson's Bay Company. The river has an alternate name, Quoitle, which is probably equivalent to Kwantlen. (Wikipedia)

In the heart of the woodland’s embrace,

Where ancient trees stand tall,

A gray squirrel scurries with gentle grace,

Answering nature's call.

 

With fur as soft as silver mist,

It moves with practiced ease,

Through sunlit rays and shadows kissed,

Among the whispering trees.

 

Its tail, a plume of feathery gray,

Flicks with every leap,

As it dances through the branches,

In a silence the forest keeps.

 

With eyes that sparkle, quick and bright,

It surveys its leafy domain,

Collecting treasures, day and night,

Before the autumn rain.

 

A creature small, yet full of might,

With courage in its stride,

The gray squirrel thrives in nature’s light,

In the forest, wild and wide.

 

So let us marvel, as we see,

This acrobat of the wood,

For in its grace, so wild and free,

The gray squirrel lives as it should.

For hours he sat in a meadow and posed on various posts. Turning around every now and then, for this day he was my model. Lucky me. I like this capture so much because this Buzzard has the wind in his hair … uh feathers.
