I was tracking this tiny Sanderling at Boundary Bay Regional Park in mid-February 2017 when s/he finally landed a fresh bit of surf 'n' turf near the shore. Seaside dining at its finest!

Cute Sanderling Sandpiper Dines on Clam at Beach Postcard

It's an avalanche of cuteness when a flock of Bushtits descend on the suet feeder in the backyard. However, these hyperactive bundles rarely hold still for a photo. This young fellow was an exception to the rule; while everyone else was busy engaged in feeding on the suet or looking for insects in the trees, he was happy to look pretty on the pear tree, and I was happy to oblige. Photographed in mid-January 2017.

Mid-summer is the time of the season for lilies, and my first quintet of large, homegrown fuchsia-hued Stargazer hybrid Oriental Lilies don't disappoint. A wonderfully delicate embodiment of curves and colors! Photographed against a backdrop of feathery asparagus stalks in mid-August 2017.

Elegant Floral Medley of Stargazer Oriental Lilies Postcard

These Tree Swallow nestlings are just about ready to fledge and take wing in the big wide world outside their nestbox, which is getting a bit crowded now they're almost full grown. I got the attention of the one on the left, and a few moments later, its sibling decided that I was worth a look, too, and also poked its head through the entrance opening!

Cute Tree Swallow Babies Looking at Big World Postcard

The smallest and perhaps most strikingly colored falcon found in North America. In the avian kingdom, where females are often dressed in drab hues, the slate grey and barred, copper orange plumage of the female American Kestrel give her a dazzling beauty to rival that of her male counterpart.

Stunning American Kestrel Sparrowhawk Falcon Postcard

2017 seems to be the year of Wilson's Warblers, and our backyard has not been exempt from the presence of these small but cheery yellow warblers. The energetic black-capped males have been exploring every potted plant and fruit tree and singing their uplifting melodies. This handsome guy paused on the cherry tree just long enough for me to get him in all his golden goodness. Photographed in mid-May 2017.

Beautiful Wilson's Warbler Songbird in Cherry Tree Postcard

The pink flowers of these moth orchids blossomed in the week before the 2018 vernal equinox. Did you know that pink orchids not only represent femininity, grace, and joy, but are also are the flowers with which to celebrate the 14th and 28th wedding anniversaries?

Elegant Floral Pink Orchids Phalaenopsis on Black Postcard

A stunning statement of yellows and blacks, this handsome male Cape May Warbler has captivated crowds at Mill Lake Park in Abbotsford. This newcomer to southwestern British Columbia has been spending his winter break here since the first day of 2019 -- odd behavior for a boreal songbird who normally winters as far south as Mexico. However, he has adapted quite nicely, with tasty yellow mahonia petals and nectar, plus plenty of grubs and insects nearby!

A Serene Barn Owl Jigsaw Puzzle

An attractive raptor with a heart-shaped facial disc, the Barn Owl is gifted with extraordinary hearing — it can even hear the heartbeats of everyone in a 30 square foot room — and silent flight, which lets it descend on and capture rats and mice with extreme stealth. As nocturnal creatures, these endowments are critical when hunting in (sometimes) complete darkness.
