Kitchen Towels

Add a touch of nature to the kitchen with this wildlife-themed kitchen towel! About 4 of the 10 Horned Grebes we spotted at Blackie Spit were swimming and diving uncharacteristically close to the main walking path of Crescent Beach -- close for Horned Grebes, that is (about 20-30 feet away). The fishing was obviously quite good near shore. My closest encounter with these birds. They are exhibiting neither the flamboyant yellow horns nor red-and-black breeding plumage during this season, but those red eyes and dapper tux are nonetheless mesmerizing!

Add a touch of furry whimsy to the kitchen with this adorable, dog-themed kitchen towel.

Ella the Pomeranian was so happy to be the focus of attention that she forgot (for once) to run to the photographer, and instead cracked a smile for me. Photographed in late June 2018.

Sanderlings are tiny -- and surprisingly, quite approachable -- migratory shorebirds which can be easily found on Vancouver beaches in the coldest winter months. This one was strolling quite leisurely on the shoreline. Photographed on a very sunny and busy winter afternoon at Boundary Bay Regional Park.

Sanderling Strolling on a Winter Beach Towel

Add a touch of nature to the kitchen with this wildlife-themed kitchen towel! 

It's always a wonderful moment when our subjects seek us out instead of the other way around! A particularly bold American Robin approaches our picnic table to stare at us -- perhaps he was hoping that we had worms or berries with us?

Curious American Robin Songbird in the Grass Towel

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!

Black Oystercatcher Shorebird Fishing at the Beach Towel

Add a touch of nature to the kitchen with this floral-themed kitchen towel! 

I could not pass up an opportunity to photograph these newly bloomed orange Asiatic Tiger lilies, freshly anointed with rain drops from a shower earlier in the afternoon. Photographed in early June 2017.

Rain-Kissed Orange Asiatic Tiger Lilies Kitchen Towel

Add a touch of nature to the kitchen with this wildlife-themed kitchen towel! The lone representative of its species (a recently recognized and separate species of the black geese family), a Cackling Goose (once considered a Canada Goose subspecies), plies the waters of an inner pond at Jericho Park on a sunny and surprisingly warm-for-winter afternoon. A much shorter bill and smaller body size set this goose apart from its larger Canada Goose cousin.

After being denied my first butterfly photo of 2014–first by a butterfly enthusiast successfully wielding her butterfly net after a Butterfly Symposium on garden grounds, and then having another butterfly almost land on my lens less than an hour later, I captured a Western Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly on the last mile of our meanderings through the UBC Botanical Garden.

Western Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly on Rodgersia Photo Print

Rudbeckias are some of my favourite summertime flowers, especially when these buttery yellow beauties bloom like this. Photographed in mid-August 2016 at Colony Farm Regional Park.

Rudbeckia Fulgida / Black-Eyed Susans Classic Round Sticker

Add a touch of nature and whimsy to your laptop or computer with this heartwarming wildlife-themed gel mousepad.

In a cute moment highly reminiscent of another bushtit family gathering from 2016, three young songbird fledglings roost together in the sun-dappled shade of the pear tree, while parents and helpers (older siblings) pick grubs from the leaves nearby, while keeping up a steady stream of conversation. My young subjects were only too willing to oblige for my lens. Photographed in late May 2020.

Say goodbye to boring and get noticed with these double-sided, wildlife-themed business cards! 

A closeup of a gorgeous young male Golden Eagle, who immediately proved restless and eager to fly free from his handler and exhibitor. My first encounter with this species.

Mystique of the Great Blue Heron Photo Print

Just two feet away from me on a log, and surrounded by Wood Ducks, Mallards, Lesser Scaups, and American Coots was this Great Blue Heron, trying to catch a few winks in the sun. Blue Herons are one of the most commonly seen and distinctive birds in Metro Vancouver, frequenting marshes as well as ditches by freeways and highways.

WWN Mystique of the Great Blue Heron

Add a touch of nature to the kitchen or dining room with this elegant, floral-themed sandstone coaster. 

Asiatic lilies are a wonderful addition to any summer garden, and this red orange 'Gran Paradiso' cultivar bloomed just a bit earlier to fill the void left by the early blooming roses. Photographed in mid-June 2016.

Beautiful Red Orange Asiatic Lily Gran Paradiso Coaster

I so rarely get the opportunity to photograph female Bushtits. As both genders possess the small greyish/brownish plumage, shape, and size, the golden-colored eyes of the ladies are what distinguish them from the gents. This little lady stopped eating for a few seconds to stare straight into my lens and look into my heart.

Female Bushtit in the Pear Tree Classic Round Sticker

The only adult male Anna's hummingbird who would "consent" to having his (developing) crown taken at (somewhat) close range -- close, in this case, being 10-12 feet away in the second floor sunroom. He constantly flashed me his iridescent pink head whilst on the blackberry branch. Not even my opening a less-than-well-oiled window would get him to budge.  Based on the original photography of W.H.
