It was gorgeous outside this past weekend...which meant ditching run club and taking advantage of the lack of cold and snow that we all know will be forth coming.

 

We headed out to McGillvary Falls and enjoyed every second of the challenging trail.

During a trip out to West Hawk Lake looking for Bald Eagles I came across a family of Beavers on a small pond...

I watched the beavers for a couple of hours taking lots of pictures as they swam around and foraged for some food that they were stockpiling for the winter...

In this shot, mom Beaver was pulling some branches down the bank to add to their stockpile for the winter... Beavers will collect branches that they store under the ice for feeding upon during the winter months...

One of the larger members of its family, the Pine Grosbeak is a bird of the boreal forests, found across northern Eurasia and North America, and south into the mountains of western Canada and the United States. A large, unwary finch, it makes periodic winter irruptions into southern Canada and northern United States. It is the largest and rarest of the "winter finches."

This male Pine Grosbeak was one of many that were hanging around a couple of bird feeders in Elma...

While Stuart and I were on a treck thru the Whiteshell we spotted this Blue Heron along the shore line of the Rennie River...

The sixth shot in a small series of shots of this Blue Heron that posed oh so nicely for me....

We had noticed him flying across a river in the Whiteshell and landing on this rock as we stopped the vehicle... I got out and was able to slowly work my way down to the shore line and sit on a rock in the water about 100' across part of the river from this guy.... he seemed content, as he stayed there for about 15 minutes during which he displayed some interesting behaviours...

This American White Pelican was coming in for a landing at the falls at Seven Sisters Falls...

Did you know... The White Pelican does not dive for fish as the Brown Pelican does. Instead, it dips its head underwater to scoop up fish. Several pelicans may fish cooperatively, moving into a circle to concentrate fish, and then dipping their heads under simultaneously to catch fish.

Another shot from a series that I took with this Red Tailed Hawk that was perched on a tree stump by McMunn Manitoba...

I really liked the background of leaves that provide stark contrast against the white of the hawk...

-7'C after what felt like forever of -40'C meant we had to get out...so we headed out to the Jessica Lake Trails for the day!

This Bald Eagle was one of a few I saw this past weekend when on a drive out by the Whiteshell...

First time down at the cottage with my Digital SLR. Decided it was a fine evening to go take some photos. So I went for a drive to capture a little piece of the beauty in the most beautiful part of our province, the Whiteshell Provincial Park.
