Elegant Floral Crested Shaga Japanese Iris Light Switch Cover

Add a touch of nature to every room in your home with this forest-themed switchplate cover! 

My mid-morning stroll through an old-growth forest in mid-June 2016 led me to one of those simple, yet breathtaking wonders of nature: the sight of sun-dappled shadows painted on the leaves of trees that have existed centuries before my time. The interplay of dark and light has always fascinated me.

The African Superb Starling is such a beautiful rainbow of colours. When it makes an entrance, it really makes an entrance; it's no shrinking violet. Rare, though, is the moment when it stays still long enough to get a photo of it, but got it I did, as it waited for its turn to bathe in the waterfall.

My second encounter with a male Mountain Bluebird. We are gifted, albeit very briefly, with the presence of these beautiful songbirds at the start of the spring season before they head to higher ground to breed. Those stunning cerulean colors stand out on a dreary landscape, even from a distance. When he wasn't busy diving for insects on the local beach, he was highpointing it on driftwood and stalks of dessicated tansy. Photographed at Boundary Bay Regional Park in early spring 2017.

Add a touch of nature to any room in your home with this whimsical switchplate cover, which features a feathered wisdom of Snowy Owls, having what looks like a chuckle and chortle at the photographer! 

Wildlife and the magic of the holiday season go hand in hand, and no bird wears winter better or is more strongly associated with the season of cold than the charismatic Snowy Owl. The largest owls in North America only show up in Metro Vancouver every few years, and their appearance during our winters causes crowds of admirers and fans to form and flock.

Marigolds aren't just eye candy; they've been used for culinary (teas, salads) and medicinal (anti-inflammatory) purposes for hundreds of years in European cultures. These beautiful, aromatic and showy blooms bloom all summer long into fall and even until the first frost. They are a natural mosquito repellent, and may also keep flower munchers like deer from the pride and joy in your garden. Photographed in mid June and mid July 2016 at local public and private gardens.

A Medley of Red Yellow and Orange Marigolds Light Switch Cover

Add a touch of nature and whimsy to your bathroom with this wildlife-themed shower curtain! Sandpipers (the smallest ones are known as "peeps") and plovers are some of the most enchanting--and boldest--shorebirds you'll encounter in Metro Vancouver. The smaller they are, the more you'll see them in large flocks, feeding along the shores.  Clockwise from top left: Semipalmated Plover, Sanderling, Killdeer, and Dunlin -- all shorebirds that I photographed at Boundary Bay Regional Park, an internationally recognized Important Bird Area (IBA) for thousands of migratory and resident birds, and a spectacular place to be in the fall and winter.

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

It's not a Pacific Northwest winter unless you see the Varied Thrush. One of my favorite backyard birds to see (and a highly elusive one at that), this songbird has a stunning beauty to match the hauntingly beautiful timbre of its song. This handsome fellow was foraging in the backyard with several other wintering birds when I photographed him from the second floor--giving me a rare bird's eye view of t him. We almost never see them during the summer when they spend that season northwards in Alaska, but the call of the colder seasons of the year brings them back to us. Photographed in mid-January 2017.

Stunning Varied Thrush Songbird in the Grass Wall Sticker

Add a touch of nature to your tumbler with this wildlife-themed design!

Birding just a small clearing of forest in Minnekhada Regional Park in late May 2016 yielded two new bird species for my life list, including this Red-Breasted Sapsucker, who chose to fly to a dead tree as I was photographing some other birds. This handsome woodpecker did not call -- but its bright red head did all the talking for it. It was all I could do not to stop and stare.

When you're this small and round, even watching you eat is a cute experience! Saw more of the tiny Sanderlings at the Boundary Bay Regional Park beach, just before Valentine's Day 2017. This one was foraging on the shoreline with 20 others of its kind, dining on the remnants of clams that had been already picked apart by gulls.

Give special items and keepsakes pride of place with this elegant, wildlife-themed trinket tray. 

One of my favourite birds to photograph, and one of the most elusive as well. This lovely male Varied Thrush was a bit stunned but none the worse for wear after flying into a window, but he chose to take five on the cherry tree -- giving me time to capture his beauty from the upper floor sunroom, some 15 feet away.
