The EXALTATION of the HOLY CROSS built in 1910 in E. Alberta on 4 acres of hilly land with 2 acres of cemetery. The Parish welcomed Bishop Vasyl Ladyka in 1939 and Bishop Nykyta Budka in 1914. The church appears to be lasted used in 2000.

Went looking for snowy owls late yesterday. No luck - but we did come across 3 short-eared owls. So amazing to watch them hunt. This guy even stopped for photos. #owl #nature #wildlife #alberta #bird #birds #shortearedowl #yeg

A rare sighting today in the Edmonton area. This is a male Eastern Bluebird. Mountain bluebirds are the common bluebird in the area. #bird #birds #nature #wildlife #photography #lifer #rare #canon @goingwild.bsky.social @fisherspeaks.bsky.social
A male eastern bluebird. A rarity for the Edmonton area and Alberta. Male Eastern Bluebirds are vivid, deep blue above and rusty or brick-red on the throat and breast. Blue in birds always depends on the light, and males often look plain gray-brown from a distance. Females are grayish above with bluish wings and tail, and a subdued orange-brown breast.

a lone kayaker is a spec on the ocean against 3 large rock outcrops and Vancouver Island in the distance. A perfect weather day on the BC Coast.

The Twins - Great Horned Owlets in the #yeg river valley. Get ready to leave their home. #nature #wildlife #bird #birds #owl #owls #cute #photography #canon
Two great horned owlets look out on the world from the edge of their nest in a hole in large tree. Both are very fluffy and starting to show their adult feathers.

Another photo of yesterday's chaos on the prairies in Central Alberta. 1,000s and 1,000s of snow geese. A simply amazing sight of nature. #bird #birds #nature #wildlife #canon #photography #migration #chaos #snowgeese #geese
Snow geese and even more snow geese. Thousands of snow geese fill the entire frame of the photo.
