This adult male Hairy Woodpecker was noisily deconstructing trees at the North 40 Park Reserve and showing off his gravity-defying moves to a(n) (unseen) convocation of Bald Eagles as spectators. Photographed in South Delta, BC, Canada, on the last day of the 2018 Great Backyard Bird Count.

The celebrity of the lilies, Stargazer hybrid Oriental Lily is pure art, combining a wonderfully delicate embodiment of curves and colors with a delightful fragrance that is as lovely as it looks! Photographed in July 2018 and isolated on a black background.

Elegant Stargazer Oriental Lilies Pink Flowers Postcard

An unexpectedly close encounter with a female Northern Harrier while walking the paths of the local wildlife area in early Spring 2017. This beautiful, owl-faced bird of prey, so often seen soaring the skies, was hunkered down in the marshes -- probably waiting out her next meal, a duck who had gone to ground.

Beautiful Northern Harrier Hawk in Marshes Postcard

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.

Beautiful "Lady in Red" Eclectus Parrot Postcard

We had our first trio of Rufous hummingbirds arrive in the backyard in early April 2017. This adult male was uncharacteristically taken with the early-blooming flowering currant bush and the sextet of hummingbird feeders scattered throughout the area, and stayed for a week--a real treat, considering most of the adult males usually only stay a day, passing through to more northern climes (Alaska) for the breeding season. Getting a decent shot of him has been a cat-and-mouse game, however, and this pose of him on the cherry tree (with his flashing reddish gorget and rufous feathers) was only possible because my subject did not know that he was being photographed.

Stunning Rufous Hummingbird on the Cherry Tree Postcard

If someone combined the adorably big head and black eyes of a Black-Capped Chickadee with the colours and bill of a Kookaburra in a Jay-sized body, they'd have the whimsically-named Whiskeyjack. Also known by its less colourful aliases of Canada Jay and Gray Jay, we saw no fewer than six of Canada's official national birds at Manning Park's Lightning Lake, where they would boldly descend on picnic tables in the hopes of free handouts.

Grey Jay Whiskeyjack Songbird in Evergreen Tree Postcard

That the Surf Scoters of White Rock Pier are habituated to the presence of humans is a bit of an understatement. This handsome and tame drake and hen pair was one of hundreds of these large black seaducks who routinely passed under the boardwalk during a crisp but sunny morning visit in early November 2019, giving great bird's eye views of that colorful and comically oversized schnoz that the ladies of his kind have found so fascinating for so long.

Surf Scoter Paired Ducks at Pier's Edge Postcard

A number of these large butterflies were flying through the Boundary Bay Wildlife Management Area during our early evening visit, but this one was "kind" enough to grant us an impromptu studio session for a few minutes while it fluttered and fed from the local flora.

Looking very much like sunflowers--no surprise, since they belong to the same family--Rudbeckias are some of my favourite summertime flowers, especially when they bloom en masse.

Piper Spit, Burnaby Lake Regional Park is home to the largest concentrations of Wood Ducks–which are, hands down, the most colourful waterfowl you’ll find in Metro Vancouver, Canada, and this comely female is no exception to the rule.

Seems like everyone's got a weakness for nuts and/or seeds, including this California Scrub Jay. These crestless, tricolored jays are a hit on the West Coast, where jays of the blue persuasion (and blue birds in general) are in short supply. Photographed in late March 2021.

A stunning male Mountain Bluebird perches on tansy in the early springtime drizzle. We are gifted with the all-too-brief presence of these beautiful songbirds at the start of spring before they head to higher ground to breed. Those stunning cerulean colors stand out on a dreary landscape, even from a distance. Photographed at Boundary Bay Regional Park in early spring 2017.

WWN Beautiful Mountain Bluebird on the Tansy

Trying its best to look adorable, this Eastern Grey Squirrel adopted a wishful pose for my camera in the hopes that I had food on my person. Some of my fellow humans succumbed to the collective charms of these non-natives, who were as thick as thieves at Stanley Park's Lost Lagoon on a chilly late November 2015 afternoon.
