A different perspective on one of the most famous lakes in Canada, Peyto Lake.

The outlet waters from this iconic lake form the Mistaya river, creating a beautiful chasm on it's way to the North Saskatchewan River. A few pics of the river in comments.

The last Friday of the year is here. 2016 sure whizzed bye fast.....

This young Heron was catching small fish while moving along the edge of the lake, the Perch was also in very close. The Heron suddenly darted a short distance and successfully speared this large Perch. For the next 40 minutes the Heron tried unsuccessfully to swallow it.

Nice photo op with this roadside Red Tail Hawk - - he was busy watching something in the ditch when I pulled up - - got some perch shots before he took off into the light which was really nice

This guy has hardly left this perch all summer. He sits here for hours on end, flies a few inches to the feeder and back to his perch. He chases away the other hummers that come to the feeder. I'm entertained for hours on end. It's the simply things in life.

Staying local after Scotland. Not sure I enjoy driving as much as I used to but the dog isn't complaining for sure, getting to sprint around on the beach.

This was one of those will it, wont it sunsets. There was a bank of cloud that wasn't supposed to be there according to the apps, but it cleared just in time for sunset thankfully.

Great to be out with my good friend Oli and met up with another local tog who was out for the first time after 6 weeks recovering from a hip replacement operation. It was safe to say that at 78 yrs old with a new hip he went nowhere near the slippy rocks but still got some great shots from angles I've never seen before.

Had this all to myself tonight, not a great sky but with an extremely long exposure, and a bit of subtle after sun colour, i think its quite pleasing on the eye. the reason for the longer than normal exposure was i was waiting for an afterburn but it didn't happen.

One of the so-frequent Oregon juncos was perched rather than in the usual underbrush.

I spotted this little character, an Eastern Wood Pewee, I believe, at Chicago's Montrose Point Bird Sanctuary.

It has been a awhile since we’ve spotted a Kestrel. We were visiting Yolo Bypass near Davis Ca and there were lots of birds to see, including this little beauty.

This Female kestrel was easy to identify by the rufous coloring on her head, wings, and back, with black barring.

The female’s wings lack the male’s blue-gray color.

Fort Perch Rock is a coastal defence battery built between 1825 and 1829, with the foundation stone being laid in 1826. It was built to protect the Port of Liverpool.. new brighton april 2016

Le village de Piégut se dore au soleil d'après-midi, alors que les pentes abruptes qui le dominent entrent dans l'ombre. L'ubac de Montsérieux (1590 m) est couvert de denses forêts, mais cette arête rocheuse où serpente le sentier montant vers la route forestière de la Colle a bien des difficultés à nourrir les quelques pins subsistant sur ses flancs. Ce sentier caillouteux car la roche y est souvent dénudée par les eaux de pluie s'enrichit en cette saison d'une abondante floraison d'ononis.

Piégut s'appuie sur une pointe rocheuse qui, seule, se distingue du fond de la vallée, 400 mètres plus bas. Le nom du village d'ailleurs doit son origine à cette pointe caractéristique, puisqu'il vient du latin podio acuto, qui donnera puech agut, ce qui signifie puy (colline) aigu, pointu en occitan.
