Couldn’t get as close as I’d like, but still fun watching this muskrat (and a shy companion) navigate this marsh which was covered in a thin layer of fresh ice.

Snow geese flocking up at a nearby marsh. Also had fun watching muskrats pop up and down through a thin layer of fresh ice which I’ll post later.

Spent a decent amount of time watching this bluejay hop around picking food off the forest floor.

Northern lights over northern Alberta. Usually looking for nice foregrounds to include but couldn’t resist just pointing up and clicking away.

Milky Way and meteors. Clear, cool night spent trying to capture streaking meteors in northern Alberta.

A very cooperative and photogenic rabbit hunkered down in our small garden in the forest.

Not great at identification but think these may be high bush cranberries. They have been picked over by birds.

Watched this young bull moose walk the tree line, cross the meadow and drink from the pond we were camped at.

I spend an inordinate amount of time each winter thinking about this old, weathered dock. Nothing but great memories, with more to come.

This early morning Spruce Grouse had no interest in letting me pass on the trail. Its only concession was to fly onto this branch and let me walk underneath.

Never tire of the Northern Lights. This spot is a favourite and the show is different every time.

Beautiful Northern Flicker. After foraging around the trunk of this spruce tree, started making its way up and digging below the bark before moving on.

Still decent snowpack in the mountains. Love this time of year - warm enough for leisurely strolls but winter scenes still abound. Canmore, Alberta.

Nature is full of interesting shapes and features. These tree burls are attention grabbing in person. Canmore, Alberta.
