Sitting in the middle of the lake
No two are the same
Close watch
Old Catholic Church, Dorothy
Columbian Ground Squirrel
The sacrifice made by Meadow Voles
Cat on a barn roof
Barn on a hoarfrosty day
A surprise to all
Wolf Willow berries
Off limits
White-tailed Deer
Our beautiful Foothills
Hiding in a cavity
The Famous Five again
A favourite tree
Slime Mold
Snowy Owl with mountain bokeh
Mallard pair at Mallard Point
Transformation of a preening owl
Looking into the sun
A patchwork of lichens
Almost impossible to find
Weird and wonderful Badland erosion
Sora
Snowy Owl and pellet
The old and the new
Common Goldeneye
Baby Barn Owl
Autumn Crocus
Getting ready to dive
Golden Eagle named Spirit
Green on green
Delicate damselfly
Another car gets a licking
High on the hill
The colours of summer
Bohemian Waxwing in glorious sunshine
Black Bear from last spring
One lone mushroom
Two of a kind
Wrinkled sky
A barn to be proud of
On a fence post, but no Vole
A smudge stick sky

You can always count on the Chickadees


Thank heavens for Black-capped Chickadees!! They are there to greet us, no matter what! Such tough little guys, though they are always only 24 hours away from death if they can't get enough fat stored in their body to last overnight.
Took this photo yesterday, when I decided to call in at a local park and get a bit of fresh air and sunshine. I hadn't been down there for a couple of days, so wanted to take a quick 15-minute walk while I had the chance. Bumped into a couple of people I know, who had been looking for the tiny Northern Pygmy-owl, without any luck.
"The Black-capped Chickadee is notable for its capacity to lower its body temperature during cold winter nights, its good spatial memory to relocate the caches where it stores food, and its boldness near humans (they can feed from the hand)." From Wikipedia.

I have to take my car in to be fixed - hopefully I can drop it off this afternoon ready to be repaired tomorrow. The car "beeper" keeps going off for no reason at all, which is really annoying and embarrassing. Also have to get the car door locks fixed, too - makes me wonder if the two things are connected. I had really hoped to not have to spend much on this car, which will be 16 years old next month, but it's not turning out that way.
