Painted Turtles are now on the move! Perhaps laying their eggs? We found this wee turtle lost on our street. We moved her back to a pond, where she can find a good place to lay her eggs along the banks! #turtle #turtles #waterlooregion #waterloo_region #nature

Baby robins are fledging, they are inexperienced and really a little clueless about what to do...super cute though! This one was sitting on the fence, as I walked by it was acting like it was invisible! πŸ˜‚ Momma was nearby! #birds #birdphotography

Snapping Turtles are out all over laying eggs this week and last! #waterlooregion #turtle #nature #snappingturtle #naturephotography
