A reminder, again, to (a) not throw food, like apple cores, out your car window, as it attracts animals to the highway, where they can be injured or killed; and (b) keep your cats indoors, because they kill a lot of song birds and even go after screech owls. (2/2)

Quito the broad-winged hawk was being very chatty at Wild Birds Unlimited today. The educators from #WildOntario also told us about Freyja the red-tailed hawk, Newton the screech owl, and Mowat the barred owl. ❤️ (1/2)

Black Squirrel
Caught mid-thought. This black squirrel looked like it had just remembered where it hid its last acorn.

The American Mink is a sleek little predator that thrives along Ontario’s rivers. Mostly nocturnal I’ve been challenged to spot one for months, and Saturday morning, luck finally struck.

Blackbird puffing itself up and singing to impress the girls.
Red shoulder patches? Check. Dramatic wing flare? Check. Volume at 110%? Mating season has begun.
