Although it can climb up the trunks of trees and hammer on wood like other woodpeckers, the Northern Flicker prefers to find food on the ground. Ants are its main food, and the flicker digs in the dirt to find them. It uses its long barbed tongue to lap up the ants.
Had an amazing Raptors watching tour of Pakowki Lake and Milk River areas with friend and naturalist Jerry Herzig
Observed several Ferruginous hawks, Rough legged Hawks, Swainsons Hawks, Northern Harriers, Great Horned Owls and Golden Eagles in the area.
Jerry has a wealth of knowledge on wildlife habitat and behavior.
Thoroughly enjoyed his company and hospitality.
This time last year, rain in the streets of Vancouver's Historic Gastown. The street lights on Water Street reflect off the wet cobblestone as pedestrians scramble to get out of the rain. In the winter months, a view through the leafless trees at Vancouver Lookout on top of Harbour Centre. Throwback Thursday. Captured in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada ~ March 11, 2015 ☔️

The Gray-crowned Rosy-Finch (Leucosticte tephrocotis) is a high-altitude specialist that breeds in alpine, snowy, and rocky areas of Western North America, including mountains on Vancouver Island. While rare, they may occasionally appear at lower elevations or feeders during winter storms. The Hepburn's subspecies is frequently found along the British Columbia coast.

Eastern Kingbirds (Tyrannus tyrannus) are often seen perched jauntily on a treetop or fence wire, or sallying out with shallow fluttering wingbeats to catch an insect in mid-air. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.
The break of dawn over the Howe Sound and Porteau Bluffs. The exposed rock face you see here was the site of the landslide (July 29, 2008) that sent 16,000 cubic metres of rock crashing down onto the Sea to Sky Highway below. No one was injured but this direct route from Vancouver to Whistler was blocked for 5 days while crews removed large boulders from the highway. A similar landslide occurred at these bluffs in 1965. Captured from Porteau Cove, British Columbia, Canada ~ July 2, 2017 🌲

One of the only mammals, other than humans, that can manufacture its own environment, the beaver is known for building dams, canals and lodges. Its colonies are created by one or more beaver-built dams, which provide still and deep water for protection against predators. An emblem of Canada older than the maple leaf, the beaver has had a greater impact on Canadian history and exploration than any other animal or plant species.

At flood levels, this would normally be the beach area.
It is OK to break the rules sometimes of having the midline in the middle ;)
On it's first trip out to Canada's West Coast, newly restored FP9 #4106 leads the Royal Canadian Pacific home to Calgary, AB, as the train travels east on the Cascade Sub through the Yale Tunnels near Yale, BC.
The Western Painted Turtle is named after the bright yellow stripes on its head, neck, tail and legs, and the glowing red on its plastron (shell covering the belly).
A sparkly g'day from our bruthas and sistas from Team Australia. I think they raised the bar in the Honda Celebration of Light - Day 2 of the annual multiple-day fireworks competition that attracts an estimated 1.4 million people. Looking over the reflections on English Bay at Sunset Beach,
