My first encounter with the dapper little Bonaparte's Gull in breeding plumage. This was the lone member of its species at Boundary Bay Regional Park on Global Big Day 2016!

Bonaparte's Gull at the Beach Wrist Watch

Add a splash of personality to your wrist with a wildlife-themed watch from the walkswithnature™ Watch the Birdie™ collection. 

Perched on a fallen log (and living up to his name) is this colourful drake, one of several Wood Duck “fixtures” at Piper Spit. Burnaby Lake is home to the largest concentrations of Wood Ducks–hands down, the most colourful waterfowl you’ll find in Metro Vancouver, Canada.

Beautiful Pensive Wood Duck in the Marsh Wrist Watch

Add a splash of personality to your wrist with a wildlife-themed watch from the walkswithnature™ Watch the Birdie™ collection. 

Our resident adult male Anna's hummingbird has never let me photograph him at close range, but on one evening in late May 2016, he came to sit on one of the old plum tree branches, just a few feet away from me. 

Perhaps, after seeing how comfortable the four visiting Rufous hummingbirds were around me, he probably figured that there wasn't anything scary about me -- and that I might even afford him some protection from the little hellraisers. So rather than being on the receiving end of his metallic scratchy or tick-tick-tick calls, he stared for a few moments into my lens, and then went to feed from the nectar feeder before making a much less frenzied exit than was his usual style.

Male Anna's Hummingbird on the Plum Tree Watch

Add a splash of personality to your wrist with a wildlife-themed watch from the walkswithnature™ Watch the Birdie™ collection. 

These two Wood Ducks could not possibly be any closer! Intimacy with your significant other means never having to be embarrassed just because a camera lens happens to be angled your way.

A Touching Moment Between Wood Ducks in the Woods Wrist Watch

Add a splash of personality to your wrist with a wildlife-themed watch from the walkswithnature™ Watch the Birdie™ collection. 

Taken from about 30 feet away was the first Rufous hummingbird that I've managed to photograph in our backyard with any degree of clarity. Little White Booties herself was having a contemplative moment on the yet-to-bloom Scarlet Trumpetvine--much to the chagrin of the male Anna's hummingbird who previously owned the backyard. Photographed on April 23, 2015.

One of a dozen of Harlequin Ducks I had the fortune of meeting at the beach, and my closest encounter with these diving sea ducks. Interestingly, all were adult males in near or full breeding plumage and showing off their slate grey, white, and rich cinnamon feathers, but there were no ladies of their own kind to impress. Photographed on the first full day of spring 2017.

Beautiful Harlequin Duck on the Rock Wristwatch

Add a touch of nature and wonder to your walls with this wildlife-themed decal! Perfect for bird lovers!

My first (and closest) encounter with a Sooty Grouse at Burnaby Mountain. This handsome fellow was hardly shy around the photographers, but kept largely to the base of the trees and the shadows. When the other photographers had left,  he came out for a little one-on-one time, "treating" me to dances around the remaining photographer and softly modulated hoots -- even following me partway down to the playground!

Beautiful Sooty Grouse in the Grass Wall Decal

Add a touch of nature and whimsy to your bathroom with this wildlife-themed shower curtain! Hooded Mergansers not only look different from your average North American ducks, but their courtship rituals are fascinating to watch, too. The males engage in plenty of frog-like croaking, head-to-back arches, neck stretching, and wing flapping -- all maneuvers which are pretty much guaranteed to get them largely unnoticed if not completely ignored from the females of their own kind (who have seen it many times before).

Beautiful Harlequin Ducks on the Rocks Canvas Print

Add a touch of nature to the living room with this wildlife-themed lampshade cover.  The sudden appearance of three Bald Eagles--working the waters of Boundary Bay Regional Park--sends thousands of American Wigeons (and the odd Northern Pintail) into the sunny but chilly late November skies.

Stunning Winter Ducks in Flight Ceiling Lamp

Part brainteaser, part assemble-it-yourself art, this challenging, wildlife-themed puzzle is great for improving muscle memory. This photo was voted one of America's Favorite Birds. Over 250,000 votes were cast to see which 15 (of 42) birds were selected for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's Coloring Book, to be released in the fall of 2016.  A male Green-Winged Teal enjoys the calm waters of Piper Spit/Burnaby Lake. This dabbling duck is tied with the Bufflehead, a diving duck, for the title of the smallest ducks in North America.

Handsome Green-Winged Teal Duck on Golden Pond Jigsaw Puzzle

Even on a hazy day, you can see forever. A million-dollar view of some of the Southern Gulf Islands from the top of Mount Galiano. The dragonflies were as thick as thieves at the highest point of Galiano Island, and 2-3 Turkey Vultures coasted 30-40 feet above our heads. We even witnessed a small (trio) of orca whales passing by. Not a bad reward for a relatively easy hike! Photographed in early July 2017.

Southern Gulf Islands as seen from Mount Galiano Poster

This whimsical wildlife design features a handsome male Eclectus Parrot who tends to be loud and given to overacting when he wants your attention ... a colorful personality with equally colorful "fowl" language.

Colorful Striped Tomatoes on Weathered Table Square Wall Clock

Add a little character to the office -- or office party -- with this wildlife-themed tie.  I missed seeing one of these tiny plovers in the summer, but my subject, in its non-breeding plumage, is no less beautiful for it! A rare sight for this time of the year (usually these dainty-looking shorebirds are already wintering along the coasts of the Southwestern U.S., Central America, and South America), this Semipalmated Plover was frequenting the shores of Boundary Bay at Centennial Beach during high tide, in (almost) mid-December, along with a flock of Dunlins and Sanderlings on a surprisingly sunny (and warm-for-almost-winter) day.
