Nature nut with a camera; wandering the bush in BC, Canada
No politics thanks. No solicitations. No DM's. When I do follow people back, it's those who post nature content, otherwise, thanks for the likes.
It's another frosty -5C (23F) this morning. Really hoping for some sun before the forecasted winds blow in.

For my #BirdOfTheDay #wader, I give you the diminutive Least Sandpiper. I love the patterning on it's back.

What does it mean for a tree to be “alive?”

I’m sharing this #repost from 2024 because I think this is SUCH an important concept for us to understand!

A -5C frosty morning. The sun came out for all of 12 minutes and provided this moment's worth of warmth and colour.

This little beauty is a juvenile black crowned night heron. When I see them, I wonder how a creature can be so perfect. How can they fit in this world so beautifully? As I photograph it, I whisper to them that I hope they live a long life and Godspeed. #photography #wildlife #birds #EastCoastKin

I captured this Koran angelfish at the Shilang dive site on Green Island, in Taiwan. The reef is home to a ton of marine life.

For today’s #macromonday an Eastern Carpenter Bee on a flower, with glossy eyes, golden thorax hairs, and translucent wings. It looks like a tiny aviator pausing mid-mission to refuel on nectar.
