 Coffee Mugs

Add a touch of nature and whimsy to your coffee, tea, or favourite hot drink with this wildlife-themed mug! The perfect gift idea for bird lovers! It's always nice to have the wildlife come to check us out, instead of the other way around. Looking like an overgrown cockatiel painted with green feathers and tri-coloured mascara, this elusive and exotic African native satisfied its curiosity of humans and gave us a rather unique viewing angle!

Her cobalt blue mascara never runs! Quiet as her mate is noisy, this female Eclectus Parrot surprised me even further by choosing to perch uncharacteristically close to my lens.

You know that it's been a really cold winter in Metro Vancouver when even the usually skittish Spotted Towhees perch on the trees just a foot or two away in the hopes that you have seeds on your person! Photographed at the local wildlife refuge in mid-January 2017.

Doing a flyby over the local ferry causeway at very close range on an early and blustery afternoon was this adult Ring-Billed Gull. I found this photo, which captures the downstroke, to be even more dramatic than the upstroke.

Breathtaking Ring-Billed Gull Shorebird in Flight Mug

The outboard motor on this male Hooded Merganser appears to be fully functional and in hyperdrive. No doubt, he was quite surprised to see any humans out during this unseasonably prolonged cold snap. He and a small flock of three hens represented their species at Boundary Bay Regional Park in mid-December 2016.

Handsome Hooded Merganser on the Move Mug

Add a touch of nature and personality to your coffee, tea, or favourite hot drink with this wildlife-themed mug! The perfect gift idea for bird lovers! This is my second visit to Surrey's Elgin Heritage Park, and I really wished to see a Golden-Crowned Kinglet again, my first photos of it on a deciduous tree being nothing but blurs. My wish was granted with one of several accomplished singers in a giant fir tree, a high-energy, multi-tasking (being able to sing, and flit from branch to branch while hunting for insects) Golden-Crowned Kinglet, who nevertheless proved to be a challenging subject to capture.

Add a touch of nature to your favourite drink with this stunning, wildlife-themed stein! 

This beautiful juvenile Peregrine Falcon -- who is being rehabilitated for eventual release -- was unintentionally vignetted when I photographed it through a hole in the fence. However, my subject knew to give me its best side!

Vignetted Profile of a Peregrine Falcon Beer Stein

Add a touch of whimsy to the bedroom or living room with this wildlife-themed throw. The perfect choice for bird lovers! 

The skeptical expression on this nuthatch's face seems to say, "Another photo? Really? Don't you have enough already?"  He probably doesn't believe that I don't camp out at the base of the old plum tree with camera and long lens in hand, waiting for him to make an appearance. There are at least three Red-Breasted Nuthatches (two males and one female) who visit the backyard regularly since our first encounter with them last year, and they have been getting progressively bolder and bolder (even more so than the Black-Capped Chickadees, whom this male will even boot off to get to the sunflower seeds).

A Skeptical Red-Breasted Nuthatch Throw Pillow

Add a touch of nature and whimsy to any wall with this wildlife-themed photo print. The perfect choice for bird lovers! The baby of the family--literally. A family of three bushtits was noisily searching for bugs in the California Lilac--the pre-bedtime snack.  While Mom and Dad were actively foraging, this adorable little boy spent time looking pretty for the photographer.

Add a touch of nature to your car with this whimsical, wildlife-inspired air freshener!

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.

Closeup of a Killdeer Shorebird on the Rocks Canvas Print

An early morning walk in July 2015 brings us unexpectedly face to face with the normally distant and hard to photograph Killdeer. By an extra stroke of luck, this was one of a nesting pair of Killdeer, who had decided to "set up shop" not 100 feet away from a nesting pair of Bald Eagles!

Greater Sandhill Cranes in the Marsh Photo Print

A Pair of Wading Greater Sandhill Cranes Serving Tray

A pair of Sandhill Cranes wades through the shallow waters of the local wildlife refuge on a cloudy mid-winter's day. These are the largest birds that can be seen in Metro Vancouver all year round, more often on the ground, but occasionally in the air, too. As wild (and large) as they are, the ones who frequent the Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary will consent to being handfed, and indeed, sometimes demand disbursement of birdseed this way!

WWN Great Sandhill Cranes Wading through the Marsh

With its wide open spaces, the Boundary Bay Wildlife Management Area is home to many different species of songbirds as well as several raptors. I found the brown-tinged feathers on this rather bold Black-Capped Chickadee--who was anticipating a free handout of seeds--rather interesting. Perhaps a hybrid with a Chestnut-Backed Chickadee was one of its parents (or grandparents)?

Stunning Black Oystercatcher Shorebird with Clam Metal Ornament

Seafood dining at its best! One of five Black Oystercatchers we spotted on a windy, cloudy day at the Tsawwassen Ferry Jetty over the Great Backyard Bird Count 2017 (Feb 17-20) weekend. The fishing (clamming?) was good ... these shorebirds were hauling in clam after clam after clam!
