This Grizzly Bear cub took a break to sit and check me out as I was taking her photograph. #wildlife

It never ceases to amaze me how gentle animals and tolerant wildlife can be with their young. This cub enjoyed some play time with its very patient and attentive mom. #bear #brownbear #bearcub #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #grizzly #grizzlybear

Day 8 of #ArtAdventCalendar: Took this photo of a wet Grizzly Bear a few years back in the Khutzeymateen in British Columbia, Canada. It's Canada's lone sanctuary for Grizzlies, and I hope one day, it will be the first of many. #wildlife
A wet Grizzly Bear lays down in the grass. His eyes appear a bit heavy as he stares off into the distance.

On Day 7 of #ArtAdventCalendar, I offer up a Porcupine in a Tree. #wildlife
A porcupine clings to a tree, while looking directly at the viewer. Her quills appear bright yellow and her face is, for a porcupine, rather adorable.

Day 6 of #ArtAdventCalendar: I was watching this Grizzly Bear and her cub when she stopped for a moment, sat up, and seemed to just take in the view as the sun began to set. #wildlife

Day 4 of #ArtAdventCalendar: One of my favourite wildlife encounters of the year was watching this Black Bear nursing her cub in Waterton Lakes National Park, Canada. #wildlife

they should have a separate color of the year for people who haven’t lost the will to live
Neutral grey Pantone swatch with the caption, “Pantone's 2026 color of the year is historic and, technically, not a color at all - meet Cloud Dancer, the first-ever white shade to receive the designation from the world's color authority.”

It’s the time of year I like to be out looking for great gray owls but I have not found any yet. Worries me a little as the avian influenza can be quite devastating to birds of prey and that virus is making its rounds again #greatgrayowl #owl #birdofprey #wildlife

The encounter that took what was already a great #BearSeason2025 right over the top. Arctic foxes are not the easiest to find around Churchill so getting to spend time with this cutie who is still changing into their winter coat was amazing. #mammals 🌿
A tiny Arctic fox looks up from where its standing in the ice and snow along the coast. Its fur isn't pure white yet because It hasn't finished the transition to winter fur.

Baby animals love riding on mom's back. Also seen at Katmai when 482 Brett's little cub held on tight even as mom fiercely shook herself dry after a swim. From Explore.org 's bear cam, summer 2021

Furnando, the grey fox.

So magnificent. 🤩

A cropped day photo from my camera trap. It shows the raccoonobahn, the area between two wooden fences used extensively by the local wildlife. There are railroad ties running along the bottom of the right hand fence. A grey fox is coming towards the camera so we see his silver grey colored back and neck up to his face. He's a tan color underneath and on his legs. His ears are tan too. His face is mostly grey to silver with a white patch under his eyes and an area of black on his muzzle near his black nose. He is absolutely stunning

Two evenly-matched males spent the afternoon lazily sparring while waiting for the bay to freeze. #BearSeason2025 #Mammals 🌿
Two male polar bears lie on the snowy ground facing each other and lazily mouth at each other's head. The bears are up on all fours now with one draping himself over the back of the other who chomps on the loose fur around his opponent's neck. Both bears are standing on hind legs, sussing each other out before sparring for real. Both bears are standing on their hind legs getting ready to take a swipe at each other.

Polar bear moms are fierce. This mom watched three different males approaching her nap spot, posing a threat to her cub. They retreated with Mom stopping to assess the situation regularly. You can see a pretty serious scar on her face, indicating that she was quick to defend her cubs. #mammals 🌿
A mother polar bear watches intently as her cub wakes up in the snowy willows next to her. A mother and cub run away in the snowy grasses of a dry lake bed. A polar bear mom and cub look back to where they came from in the snowy dry lake bed on the tundra. A mom polar bear and cub stand in a snowy dry lake bed and look off into the distance watching some polar bear males off camera. A light snow floats around them.

Alishan being its usual beautiful self today. (Photo taken on the Shuishan Sacred Tree trail, which has had similarly dramatic light both times I’ve walked it.)
A solitary hiker walks along a forest-railway -turned-trail lined with tall trees and dense vegetation, with misty light filtering through the canopy ahead. An old white railway marker post is visible at the edge of the path.
