Hi there ! I have more trail camera action to share with you. This time it is from the Lone Pine Marsh property, north of Brighton. I have been the property steward for the past two years for the Lone Pine Marsh, which means I visit there once…
Hi there! Hope you are doing well as we navigate through this long Covid winter. Funny enough, grocery shopping has become the big highlight of the week, for more reasons than one. We have some beautiful visitors from the north, right in the Sobey’s parking lot on Main…
It’s 2021 and we are still in the middle of a pandemic. The good news is that there is nothing stopping me from going outside and wandering around by myself to see what wildlife I can find. Often there are more misses than hits – but I know the only…

Hi again! Here’s more of my wandering around in 2020. May is when the natural world really comes alive, and is one of my favourite months of the year. I went on my annual birding marathon in May – more on that below! These first 5 photos are from…
