Getting set to close 1 of 2 X accts, most of my content/posts are retrieved. Wonder if this is where we're heading for FB as well? But FB involves different "connections" for various reasons which I won't get into here, but one can't help but wonder.

Our favorite place for walks with my honey & I. The Bog, in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. Especially in the fall & early winter, when there's no bugs. An easy walk around on the boardwalk, almost like being teenagers again. #CBHNP #photography #Cabottrail ©Michel JS Soucy

A walk with my honey & I at the Bog, in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. Love the fall & winter, when there's no bugs. An easy walk on the boardwalk for us old folks. Bonus today! The elusive & very rare "Spider Ice" was spotted! #CBHNP #photography #Cabottrail ©Michel JS Soucy

Walking the roadside in the park a couple of years ago locally in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. At about 10' away, I had to cross the road lest it approach me ... *no aggression* has ever been experienced. Still my absolute fav animal to photograph. © Michel JS Soucy #photography #coyote #animals #wildlife #nature #CBHNP

Good morning everyone,
As the winds continue to howl in our area on Cape Breton Island, it provides quality time on the computer. A few mixed pix for this mornings' post.
Cheers!

Bourgeois Rd, Petit Etang Beach & a frozen Cheticamp River the day before the rains come. Still too windy to fly an update though I suspect much of that ice/snow is gone.

Then there's these two brutes grazing back in 2013.
Velvet is shedding on the left just after he shredded a shrub, the bull on the right is blind in the left eye.

#wildlife #moose #wildlifephotography #CBHNP
From Aug 2013 at Trout Brook in the #CBHNP, bull moose had just finished thrashing in the bushes trying to deal with the itch of his shedding velvet. We had just moved to Cheticamp in April from Kingston, Ont.
Best move ever!

Meanwhile...
Rack in the forest....
this brute of a bull moose decided to announce itself during a recent hike.

A good morning out proved fruitful.
Been hoping for a sighting since the last 2 months, finally this morning I found him.

A super morning on the Cabot Trail and the Skyline.
Leaves are presenting what they could post Fiona and it's all still jaw-dropping scenery.

A morning tour to check out how the colours were progressing...and we were not disappointed...
more to come for sure on the west side of Cape Breton Island!

Finally made it to a local coastal area a couple of nights ago. Access through what used to be Trout Brook and now the new Mkwesaqtuk/Cap-Rouge Campground. I certainly have some idea's for a return visit.
