A seagull enjoying the sunshine, probably as much as I was. I wanted to try some bird in flight photos and these gulls are pretty cooperative. Taken here in Ottawa near the Ottawa river.

The day started off cloudy but I decided to try and get some photography in anyway. I was in forest by the Ottawa river and Island Park when I heard a commotion. The critters were upset because there was an owl, and here it is.

Deep snow everywhere made the trek tough but it was worth it on such a sunny day, and there were a few birds too. It snowed about (30cm) the day before.

Even A cold day like today is a good day to get out and see some nature. These birds were filling themselves with berries in my local woods.
