Photo of a sharp-tailed Grouse. It is sitting in a patch of dead grass with snow around. The photo was shot in a heavy rain.
About the only time you can sneak up on these flighty birds is in the pouring rain. A very wet and unhappy Sharp-tailed Grouse. I can relate little bird!!! #Nikon #Birds #Nature #Wildlife #Manitoulin #SharptailedGrouse
Close up photo of an American Woodcock resting in dried grass and showing off their incredible camouflage.
The spring migration is ramping up. Old friends are coming home. American Woodcock (Scolopax minor), truly one of the hardest birds to catch on camera. #Nikon #Birds #Wildlife #Manitoulin #Nature #Wildlife #MigratoryBirds

Recent drug charges are fueling speculation about Winnie Migwans disappearing from #Manitoulin
Photo of the setting sun forming a huge sun star as it comes through ice covered branches.
I don't incorporate sun stars into too many of my images... I find that over-use can make them feel a little cheesy or clichéd. But, every now and then, one just screams for my attention. #Nikon #Nature #Art #Ice #Sunstars #Manitoulin

Close-up, and ground level, photograph of a clump of ice covered grass. There is dramatic warm lighting coming through the icy grass from the rising sun.
Dawn, in the Ice Age.

Photograph of trees coated in ice after a storm. The scene is overlooked by dark cloudy skies with one portal of blue.
Aftermath. I do love our annual northern ice storms.

Photograph of ice encased grass stem with the sunrise shining through from behind. There is one tiny bead of ice hanging from the grass and the sunrise can be seen refracted through it.

Photograph of a bright red male Northern Cardinal sitting on a try branch in a snow storm.

After the storm..... breathe it in. A moment of stillness where the land exhales, untouched and serene—nature reminding us how beautiful calm can be. #manitoulinmagic #EastCoastKin #photography #manitoulin
Photograph of a pasture with a split rail fence through it, and a forest as the background. Everything is coated in ice from a recent ice storm.

Photo of a House Wren sitting on a branch. Its back is to the camera but it is looking back at the photographer.
These wee House Wrens truly are the chihuahuas of the bird world. (Nothing like a stormy winter's day to work on the thousands of leftover summer images. 🤣)

Image of Maximilian sunflowers. The flowers are brightly lit by sun and superimposed on a dark moody background.
Remember the feeling of the sun on your face? I love the way photography allows us to immortalize these wee moments in time.

Vous servir en tant que médecin-hygiéniste a été un privilège. J’ai hâte de découvrir ce que 2026 nous réserve.
Winter image of a fast flowing stream cascading over rocks and surrounded by snow and ice.
I tend to not go with black and white for many of my images... but sometimes Ma Nature insists. #Nikon #Nature #Winter #Water #Art #Manitoulin #Landscapes
Slow shutter speed photograph of waves rolling in to shore and smashing on rocks. It is cold enough that the water splashes are freezing on the background rocks.

Photograph taken while standing in a shallow river. In the foreground water is rushing around snow and ice covered boulders. In the background is Manitoulin Island's semi-frozen iconic Bridal Veil waterfalls.
So I might have got a bit of a soaker taking this shot.🥶🤣

Autumn is the Wiikwemkoong people’s Water Protector. I would claim her as a #CanadianHero but she has her own nation with millennia of history on beautiful Manitoulin Island to be proud of.
