 Trivets

Use this floral-themed trivet to protect delicate surfaces, tables, and countertops from hot pots, or as an accent piece for the dining room or kitchen.

I couldn't find an angle I liked with this vivid two-tone Monsella tulip until I did a few macro shots of it, and the seeming randomness of the streaks of red running rampant through this bright yellow flower seemed to me like a chaotically natural expression of art.

Katie is a glove-trained American Kestrel and a former pet. As she has depended on humans from chickhood, she cannot hunt for herself in the wild. Photographed on an Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society open house weekend.

Handsome Tree Swallow Songbird on a Wire Trivet

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.

My introduction to the Satyr Comma / Anglewing. Apparently these little, bright orange butterflies are supposed to be skittish, but don't tell this beauty that ... it posed for several shots on a blade of marsh vegetation. Photographed on July 2, 2016 at Campbell Valley Regional Park.

A mid-summer walk around Stanley Park's Lost Lagoon yielded the surprise of a raccoon. In fact, this one quietly preceded us, like a tour guide, for a hundred yards, to the cement bridge before joining a haze of other raccoons. S/he even stopped to give me a few angles ... all of which is very unnatural behaviour for a mammal who is more likely to be active at night!

One of three Eastern Grey Squirrels who find the cherries on the backyard fruit trees simply irresistible. I think I'll call him Don Cherry. If it's a girl, it'll be Dawn Cheery. Either way, I'm covered. Photographed in my backyard in mid-June 2016.

WWN Getting the Staredown from a Tree Swallow in the Nestbox

Give special items and keepsakes pride of place with this whimsical, wildlife-themed trinket tray, which depicts a woodcut-style illustration of one of nature's most endearing and inquisitive creatures! 

With their oversize heads; small, plump bodies; and spunky personalities, Black-Capped Chickadees are a common sight throughout much of North America. Their fondness for black oil sunflower seeds is legendary, and their willingness to purloin seed from open hands is equally shameless. Having up to three of these songbirds perched on your hand at the same time, deciding which seed (or seeds) to make off with and feast upon, is hardly unusual, not to mention time well wasted.

Add a touch of nature to treasured memories and moments with this wildlife-themed binder! 

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.

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.
