I’ve always said that Frank Lake is my ‘happy place’ and this week while visiting there I overheard another person use the exact phrase to describe this birder’s paradise! Here’s a pic I took there of a western grebe. 🪶 #birds

I heard that a snowy egret, a rare visitor to the Calgary area, had been spotted near McKinnon Flats southeast of the city. Since it's only 35 minutes away, I decided to take a drive and see if I could spot thebird. No snowy egret, but many other birds including this Eastern kingbird. 🪶 #birds

This purple finch, photographed in central Alberta, Canada, is a “lifer” for me. Enjoy!

It was a thrill to photograph this short-eared owl as it soared and hunted in the fields east of Calgary, Alberta, Canada in March of 2018. He landed for a quick break quite close to where I had parked on a lonely gravel road. #birds 🪶

The eared grebe is exotic looking and fun to photograph. They are constantly diving and it’s a challenge to catch them above water. Photo taken June, 2024 at Frank Lake, Alberta, Canada. #birds 🪶

This photo was taken last summer in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The blue jay is one of my favourites ( I say this about most birds.) #birds 🪶

A pair of red-necked grebes look like they are sharing a laugh, but it’s all part of their courtship ritual. Photo taken in early May, 2024 at Elliston Park, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. #birds

Here’s Kali. Her owner left her with his roommate and didn’t return. My daughter rescued her from the shelter in 2020. Kali’s a lovely girl who enjoys playing fetch with a stick but only if you throw it into the water. Otherwise, forget it. Swimming’s her jam. #dogsofbluesky
