If living things inspire you to be your best, then this desk mat, which features a rare closeup of a ground foraging Northern Flicker, is for you. 

Usually the Northern Flickers I meet like to keep a rather "discreet" 50-foot distance between themselves and the paparazzi. For some inexplicable reason, this male Red-Shafted Northern Flicker decided to forage on the ground ... some 6.5 feet away! Photographed on April 15, 2015, at Boundary Bay Regional Park in Tsawwassen, BC, Canada.

Stunning Northern Flicker Foraging in the Grass Desk Mat

Be inspired to be your best with this desk mat, which features the quote, "Find Inspiration in Every Moment of Every Day" against a photo of clouds tinged with the colors of the rainbow, an optical phenomenon known as cloud iridescence or irisation. I was privileged to capture that moment on a cold winter's day as the sun was setting.

As a graphic designer, photographer, and writer, I've learned that it's important that nothing be taken for granted. Don't forget to appreciate the smallest things in life. Only then can you be inspired to be creative, and to find wonder in living life to the utmost.

Beautiful Dazzling Rainbow in the Clouds Desk Mat

If living things inspire you to be your best, then this desk mat, which features a family of snowy owls mugging for my lens, is for you. 

Wildlife and the magic of the holiday season go hand in hand, and the 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.

Dreamy Snowy Owls Family Funny Having a Hoot Desk Mat

If living things inspire you to be your best, then this desk mat, which features a top-down closeup of several cultivars of sempervivum, is for you. 

Also known as live forever, houseleek, and hens and chicks, these plants were transplanted from the flowerbed (where they were growing unchecked) to the more controlled setting of a 2-gallon planter. They are hardy and can survive cold temperatures down to a shocking -40 C, and, as a matter of fact, they were buried in almost 2 feet of snow last winter! Photographed in mid-June 2023.

Part brainteaser, part assemble-it-yourself art, this challenging, nature-themed puzzle is great for improving muscle memory.

Like rodgersia, California Buckeye is a big draw for butterflies. I had no shortage of opportunities to capture Swallowtail Butterflies working these tiny flowers for their nectar. Photographed in mid-June 2016.

Western Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly on the Buckeye Jigsaw Puzzle

Add a touch of feline with this animal-themed wall hanging. The perfect choice for cat lovers! 

You'd never guess, from her playful and youthful manner, that Stella is actually 10 to 12 years older than she looks! This indoor sweetie is as likely to cuddle up to the laps of strangers as she is to those of her regular pair of humans, but she knows how to puts her paw down as far as dogs (especially big dogs) are concerned.

Stella the Grey Cat Charcoal Sketch Canvas Print

Bring a bit of nature with you, wherever you go, with this wildlife-themed tote! 

Isn't she lovely? This female Rufous hummingbird poses calmly for my camera on the old plum tree in the backyard. With the very early arrival (and disappearance) of the males in March and April as they migrate to as far north as Alaska, we have had a veritable dearth of yardbirds. Her continued presence means that life will become much more "interesting" for the resident Anna's (particularly the males). Not coincidentally, we are also seeing more birds in the backyard now.

Female Rufous Hummingbird on the Plum Tree Tote Bag

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

Rufous Hummingbirds have usually left Metro Vancouver for Mexico by mid August, so it was a delight to see and photograph this exceedingly feisty straggler in the backyard. This little scrapper has been (successfully, for the past two days) giving grief to the juvenile male Anna's hummingbird who has owned the backyard for most of the summer (as well as the other feathered friends who visit), vigorously defending every flower and feeder in sight. This hybrid fruit tree branch has become its favorite perch, and gave me quite a few photographic opportunities. Photographed on September 4, 2016.

Add a touch of nature and whimsy to your fitness regime with this wildlife-themed hydration bottle!

In my opinion, the male Bullock's Oriole is the most gorgeous of the blackbirds we have the opportunity of encountering on the West Coast. He sports cheery bright orange and yellow feathers that contrast with his black and white ones. This handsome fellow was, rather strangely, out in the open, perched on a pear tree in a farm, rather than being high up in the canopy of a forest as is usually the case with these blackbirds. Photographed on a sunny and warm afternoon in late May 2017.

Make pjs, bedroom decor, bags, and so much more with this fabric, which features the profile of a feathered hunter.

A Short-Eared Owl surveys its hunting grounds for opportunistic Northern Harriers who would not hesitate to take advantage of the fruit of its hunting prowess. Sudden gusts of wind fluff this hunter's head feathers, revealing the short ear tufts for which this owl is named. Photographed on a late afternoon in late November 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.
