This White-throated sparrow was oblivious to me as it was scratching for food.

We have been inundated with Snowy Owls this season... I was super blessed to come across this guy... (I believe it's a young male) on one of my treks

On a normal hike on the back of my neighbour's property, we spotted a pair of Trumpeter swans. They must have left shortly after as they are not there

A friend's barn cat.

I happened to catch a pair of Trumpeter Swans in a local pond....I thought this was cute.

Great Grey Owl

A Great-Horned mother owl watching over her young.

This painted turtle probably thought he saw two of himself!

Gorgeous Wood Duck male, on Mud Lake- Ottawa.

A male woodduck at a nature reserve.

A bunch of mallards taking off after being spooked...

I am not sure what kind of flowers these are, they were covering the floor of the forest I was walking in.

Mother Owl popped in to check on her babies.

These are few of the turtles I captured on a hike in Ottawa.

2 adorable owlets peeking at me when I was observing them. I don't think these young Great Horned owls could picked a more perfect pose.

This photo just makes me smile. 3 painted turtles looking at me.
