Shy male Pyrrhuloxia pausing for a moment.

BTW: It has no common name of which I'm aware. Also, no matter how I attempt to pronounce the name, I get it wrong.

Common and abundant.

They may be an invasive species, but these phragmites sure do look pretty as the rising morning sun peaks through them. Unfortunately, even though they look beautiful, phragmites dominate the landscape around southern Ontario, as they choke out other native plant species.

Think I might have used Peek a Boo before but it does seem appropriate for this shot that was of course taken at the BWC.

I was in the woods taking a break and heard some rustling near me. I looked and this little Chipmunk kept poking his head out of the brush scoping things out.

Looking thru a slot in the rocks at a portion of iconic Peyto Lake. Just one of the many jewels along Alberta's stunning Icefields Parkway.

Enjoy a wonderful Wednesday!

A female or possibly a young male peeking back at me as it is eyeing a Butterfly bush flower to drink nectar. It is putting on weight to prepare for a flight over the Gulf of Mexico from Illinois for the upcoming winter.

i was driving on a dirty road looking for birds when i saw a shape at my right.

i'm used to find owls that are very mimetic and cannot be search easily with a sight.

the best thing to do with all the wild animals is to be used to their shape.

so i stopped the car and i came back...nothing there...but i decided to wait a bit and after a minute ...

peekaboo!!! a curious spotted eagle owl (bubo africanus) rose from behind some rocks.

i really love these birds!!
