Resident Owls

Hello!

We still have Eastern Screech Owls living in our backyard! Usually they are hanging out in our Blue Spruce tree, but lately they have disappeared, which hopefully means they are sitting on eggs somewhere! This morning my Mom woke me at 6:30 to take photos of the owl hanging out in our birdbath! The only way I won’t mind getting up at 6:30 is for animals and photography! The owls are so cute, they don’t have much fear of us, and just stare at you when you get close. Thank you for looking!

Hello!
Last cottage post! Our last day at the cottage, Dad and I went on a canoe paddle, hoping to get some good Loon photos. On our paddle however, we ran into the resident beaver pair of the lake! We followed the one beaver for quite a while, and I got some great shots of him. On the paddle back we ran into the Loons, and floated around them for a bit as well. I feel very lucky to have the chance to spend a few days at the cottage and getting up close and personal with so much great wildlife!
Thanks for looking! I will probably post a random art dump next!

Hello again!

These photos are all from Algonquin Park, where we walked a few trails and saw some moose! We never see any moose until we are driving out of the park, oddly enough, and this year was saw 8 moose! We saw a few pairs of Mothers with calves, and one younger Bull moose, who is in the last photos. The silly boy thought it was best to stand in the middle of the road and stare at the cars! He also had lovely blue eyes, which I hadn’t seen on a moose before! One more dump of cottage pictures to go!

Thank you for looking!
