A heavily cropped image of a piping plover by the shore of Shoe Lake West. The bird's colouring blends well with the sand and gravel by the water's edge. I was there as a volunteer at a Piping Plover Survey. We counted eleven birds during our hike around the lake.

An avocet seen at a Nature Conservancy of Canada property called Shoe Lake West. It is in fact a wetland that in some summer seasons dries up, but during the nesting period the migratory waterfowl like this habitat.

This pronghorn antelope had moved from the ditch into the field beside it when the photographer rolled up. The antelope is well adapted to almost disappear in this habitat.
