This was a lovely sighting yesterday, when I went with a friend north west of Calgary to Winchell Lake and other nearby areas. This pond was near some houses, so I was surprised when we noticed (from the car) this Moose feeding there. Luckily, we were able to stop for a brief moment to get a few shots of this huge beast before it left the pond.

I went with a friend for a drive this morning, north-east of the city to the Cochrane and Grand Valley Road area, hoping that we might be lucky enough to see an owl of some kind out there. No luck with an owl, but we saw a beautiful family of these Mule Deer and we managed to get a shot or two from inside the car. The weather was beautiful - there was low, dark cloud over the mountains in the far distance.
