Tim Osborne Photography 🍁 @timosborne.ca · Dec 21
A re-introduction to my new followers. I'm Tim, a photographer in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada. You'll mostly find me posting wildlife shots here. But be warned, I may also sprinkle in some sports (Go #oilers) and the occasional political post. Look forward to connecting!

Number 6 on my top 10 favourite photos of 2025. I have photographed a lot of elk but this one stands out. I’m always looking for that visible vapour oof the breath in the cool mornings and to get it against a dark background with the bull facing the camera it was perfect! #wildlife #elk #bullelk

Number 7 on my top 10 favourite photos of 2025. This pair had young, which had yet to make an appearance. At least one parent always stood watch. In this instance one of the adults took a break to hunt and was just returning before sunrise. #burrowingowl #owl #wildlife #wildlifephotography #nature

Day 24 of #ArtAdventCalendar: Wishing all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and the happiest of New Years!
A Snowy Owl sitting on a wooden post. Her feathers give the appearance of a smile on her face. Or maybe, she truly is happy.

Number 8 on my top 10 images of 2025.

Yes I got the iconic bear on top of the falls when I visited Brooks Falls this summer but I also got this one. Below the falls a male had just devoured a salmon and had sat up and yawned, it looks like he’s yelling at the salmon

Happy Solstice! Not a fan of the dark, so always happy to reach the point where days start getting longer. Spring is just around the corner for those of us in the Northern hemisphere, so here's a happy chickadee for today's #ArtAdventCalendar
Digital painting of black-capped chickadee perched on a branch that is covered in fanciful white daisy-like flowers against a brilliant blue sky. The bird is facing right and has gray wings, white belly and head with black feathers across the top of its head and under its chin.

Day 17 of #ArtAdventCalendar: "A Fresh Perspective"

It's always a good idea to look at things from a new perspective from time to time! #birds #owls
A Northern Hawk Owl twists its head to look at the approaching photographer. The sky is blue in the background and the owl is full of judgement. 😂

I spotted this lovely Great Horned Owl while driving, pulled over & used the railing on a bridge to steady my camera. You can see the sunrise in its eyes… 🪶 1/80, f/6.3, ISO 1000

I think he may have achieved peak iridescence!
