I don't think I have seen the river so calm for a whole day. I took Timelapse videos at three different times.#Riversocalm #NaturePhotography

Had a quick visit to the feeder this morning of this #Red Breasted #Grosbeak and I was lucky a camera was close. Handsome lad. #NaturePhotography

Who says it's too early for a swim. Taken this evening at the #Aylmer #Marina. Such a popular place on an evening like tonight.

The river has truly come alive at 6:12 this evening. A couple with the white skin of winter and three very cute #kids came up river and in close here to do some #fishing. I have not even got a sailboat under sail up here yet. I hope they took home some fish.#Ottawa #Pontiac

I didn't feel like leaving my Happy Place to photograph the sunset this evening, so just did it from here.

Today I managed to photograph a House #Wren bringing a bird feather back to his house to #Feather His Nest. I have done many photos of the House Wrens, but never one bringing a feather for his nest.#NaturePhotography

Two nights ago at 8:20 pm my #trail cam alerted me something was on the move. I went to the window to see a #Racoon getting stuck in to the cracked corn. I tapped on the window and he raised his head with his nose all covered in corn. Then I waved at him and he was gone.#Nature

A few of the more difficult #Warbler type birds I managed to get something of yesterday at #MudLake. Tricky little birds that never stop moving. Click on the bird for an identification.

I took so many images today at #MudLake with 2 friends/ it will be awhile before I can post the interesting ones. I will post this one though of a bird I have not seen before let along photograph. It is a #BlackCrownedNightHeron. What a treat it was. #NaturePhptography

Early this morning a small band of #fog came up the river with spots one could see through. I found it very attractive and unusual.

A couple of days ago I set up a new #Trail camera and while out and about it sent me a message that someone was visiting. What a nice visitor too. #deer #NaturePhotography

Lovely #sunset at the #Aylmer #Marina this evening. No wonder it's so popular in the evenings.#NaturePhotography

Went down to the big construction site in Aylmer this morning and did a 1/ hour TimeLapse. Unless I can get special permission to continue, this might be the last update.😕

It was a Reddy #Fox kind of morning. I saw it moving around the property, then it found a place to sit down and get all tidied up. Then what do you know but it takes a good comfortable nap in the sun. Then up it sits looking all fresh. This took place over an hour. What a treat!

Coming back from a family gathering in the #Bristol Mines area I stopped to get this shot showing a favourite view of the #Ottawa River. Favourite because it's a view everyone who travelled up the river in the past would have seen, and knew around that corner lay a new world.

Here are the two Turkey shots from yesterday that I promised to post. 1st is it wandering around the property around noon and the 2nd taken after 8pm way up a tree down by the river, 75 to 100ft above the ground.

Today's fun.

As I was working in the kitchen this evening at 7:15, these two #deer came out of the bush next door onto my property and I was able to get this shot through the windows. I was hoping for more but the deck door was open and they probably heard the sounds from inside the house.

After a crazy afternoon of #storms, the #sunset was quite nice. I didn't have time to get home to a camera so just grabbed this shot with my phone.

#TimeLapse of a storm coming across the #Ottawa river this afternoon. In the first few seconds you can see some lightning and part way through, you can see where I opened the window to squeegee the water away, (the wind quite strong) then it all became super calm.

Went down to #Aylmer to do an update on the #construction at 45.406904° -75.863251° (for those who want to know exactly where it is.) I was hoping to do a TimeLapse of all the activity in the hole but it started to rain. Another time for that. Enjoy the evening.

The other nice thing that greeted me on waking was the lovely calm #Ottawa River. This was before 7. Notice the #geese are already moving too. #NaturePhotography

Fun this morning as a youngish female #deer came back for a visit just before 7, this time coming right up to the #feeders to check things out. They are always aware of sounds sometimes, standing rock still and ears up and listening for danger.#NaturePhotography

Stopped at #Mud Lake when in #Ottawa today and witnessed this bully #Mallard duck almost crashing into this #Wood duck as it was landing, and I could tell he was doing it on purpose, Next two shots show the Wood duck trying to regain its composure. #NaturePhotography
