Continuing to post photos from my archives until I finally manage to get out for a drive. The last time I was able to go anywhere was 19 October 2023. Our weather has been mixed recently, cold with overcast days and others with some sunshine. A bit of snow is forecast to fall tonight. I am hoping that doesn't happen as my car has been away for today and yesterday, getting my winter tires installed and new brake pads. Always nice to get a free car wash along with the rest.
If I wrote a description under any previously-posted photos that were taken on the same outings as these 'new' photos posted today, I will add it under today's photos.
"This rather helpless little thing is a tiny Northern Saw-whet Owlet. I had been invited (and could bring a couple of friends) to go and see a family of tiny Northern Saw-whet Owls (with 6 owlets) and a family of Barred Owls (2 owlets) up near Edmonton. Both families of owls had nested in wooden nest boxes. It's a three-hour drive from Calgary north to Edmonton, and then the owls were a further half-hour drive. (We had just a very short drive between the two owl familes, that were on private property). Worth every minute of it to see these two species of beautiful owls! Thanks so much, Rob, for driving Phil and me up there - I appreciate it SO much! Good to have the company of you guys - made the journey seem shorter : )
The owls were a little younger than they might have been, but still so precious to see! Richard's paid work (his endless work with owls and other raptors is all voluntary) gets busier from now on, plus his summer weekends will be spent with his family (good for him!), so we were lucky to get this chance. Richard showed us two of the six Saw-whet babies (and banded the older one of these that he hadn't banded with the others the other day, but that was now old enough to be banded), and both the Barred Owlets. I think the Barred Owlets were about three weeks old. The female adults of both families were high in fairly near, tall trees while this was going on, so we were very lucky to get photos of them, too. Trying to remember - I think I've only ever seen two Saw-whet owls in the wild, and this was the very first time I'd ever had the chance to see a Barred Owl in the wild : ))))))) At long, long last - and it felt so good! I also got the chance to meet several people from Flickr, including Don Delaney and part of his "gang". Lovely to meet you, Don, and the rest of you! Richard - we can't thank you enough for what you do (as a licenced Raptor Bander) and for sharing your love and knowledge of wildlife with others. Your young daughter (5 years old) is so lucky to be brought up with so many incredible opportunities and such a love of nature. What a keen eye she has, finding all sorts of interesting things for us to see, including a little Wood Frog. Wonderful to see such caring, gentleness and joy for all flora and fauna from such a young child, not to mention her knowledge about all these things! I was so impressed : )"

Three minutes later, a left onto Lancaster Road and the horizon seemed to be tinged orange. The road jigged left, then right and then I was headed straight into a sea of orange. Not even at the preserve yet, I stopped along the side of the road along with everyone else and ran toward the fields that were covered with the orange goodness. There, we all proceeded to literally frolic.
I drove the last mile to the preserve fulfilled.

Situated near the serene town of Ompah, Ontario, Heart Lake unveils a natural spectacle every autumn. This photograph captures the lake's unique heart shape from above, ensconced in a vibrant kaleidoscope of reds, oranges, and yellows—the hallmark of fall in this region. The contiguous forest landscape provides a stunning contrast, epitomizing the lake's allure for drone enthusiasts.
Exact Location: www.pixeoapp.com/photo-spots/north-america/canada/ontario...
Yet, as striking as Heart Lake is, aspiring photographers should be aware of the land's ownership intricacies. The lake is nestled on crown land, but accessing it by foot would require passing through private domains—a practice not welcomed by local residents. The use of drones for aerial shots remains the optimal approach, ensuring respect for private boundaries.
If the call of Heart Lake beckons you, anticipate rugged terrains en route. It's advisable to steer clear with a 4x4 or a reliable truck.

Fred couldn’t resist the blue eyes on the first photo, taken with his Nikon and a flash.
The second shot was taken with his phone.
It’s the first time we have seen these away from houses or sheds but out in the open near a salty area.

As kids, and also passed this on to mine, we used to call these seedy things 'wishes' and if you caught one, you whispered your wants and set it free. They were always so hard to catch...
Pigeon Hill, Quebec
Pigeon Hill was settled in the early 1800s by English and Dutch speaking farmers from Columbia and Dutchess Counties in New York. Today it has about 25 houses.
Pigeon Hill residents were forced into hiding during the Fenian raids of 1866. The Fenians, Irish-American Civil War veterans, planned to conquer Canada (British North America) and trade it to the British government for Irish independence.

this looks like 44 cents for an Imperial gallon -- which is about 20% bigger than a US gallon.

We have visited this population a number of times and this year there were white and pink flowers. There were more flowers than we have seen in the past.

I decided to try out this "Ansel Adams Look" I'd read about in Jason Odell's book on Capture NX2 for this captured image. The idea is to work with the LCH editor, making some adjustments, and then use a Black point and White point before converting to black & white. One of the things that really came out was the tonal contrasts with the shadowed areas and those caught in the early morning sunlight.
A spreading shrub often growing among other plants, flowering Sept to Oct.
The flowers hang down with their opening pointing to the ground. To show the stamens needed for identification, we stood the flowers upright.

Lehman's Covered Bridge in Port Royal Pennsylvania was my second out of nine covered bridges to be seen and photographed on this day. The bridge is privately owned and acts as the entrance to the Lehman's property. I really wanted to walk across and around this bridge, but out of total respect for the property owners, I remained on the main road side and snapped a few pictures from the one end of the bridge. The sign on the entrance of it indicates that the bridge was toppled by the Hurricane Agnes Storm in 1972 and was rebuilt in 1973 using salvaged original timbers. The double-truss arch design bridge is registered on the PA and National Register of Historic Places.
