This is only the 2nd day the Ottawa river has been frozen side to side and already there has been a kill on the #ice. It wasn't large enough to have been a deer and I didn't have time to send the drone out for a closer look. Here is the best shot I got of the two #Coyotes

TimeMachine on this date. #1 2017 A chickadee getting close. #2 2019 Sophie in the snow (yes snow) #3 2020 a beauty Sunset. #4 2021 A Blue Jay landing and showing off what we don't often see.

Even #Sammy Blue Jay is on the bandwagon and rooting for the #TorontoBlueJays to win tomorrow.

Took Maggie for a nice long walk today. She gets more obedient every day, such a smart doggie.

Indeed

Thanks Jenn

Sure was Pat. Thanks

Quite the scene over the river after the #sun went down. The water was very #calm, so I launched the #Drone, sent it out over the river and lowered it down low to catch the reflection of the sky in the calm water.#NaturePhotography

Half way though my walk with #Maggie today, I found a decent size stick and broke it off into a good size for her. One would think I gave her a leg of lamb. She carried it all the way home and then played with it until I had to put her back inside. She was so proud of it. #dogs

Sammy Blue Jay taking off from the feeder this morning showing those amazing colours and designs.

Yea indeed Leslie-Anne🏆

Little #Maggie the neighbourhood dog I get to visit a few times a week as her Mom works all day. Here she is this afternoon working on her retreaving skills.

#Sammy #BlueJay coming in to the feeder this morning. Notice the slight break in feathers of his right wing. It's a wonder this doesn't happen more often, when you see the way they fly right into what looks like impenetrable bush. #NaturePhotography

I changed my set-up so I could show the more colourful side of the #BlueJays. I will post more later in the day. Sammy taking off with a prize.#NaturePhotography

Three shots to put an end to the day. I was watching these two #sailboats racing each other and one just had a jib flying the other main and jib. Jib only led the way. Then I saw these #geese coming my way. How beautiful. Then the #sun setting behind the trees on the other side.

TimeMachine for today. #1 2016 early morning chair on dock.#2 2016 sunset over river. #3 2020 Blue Jays at feeder. #4 2022 Sophie and Stella among the colour.

Visiting wee #Maggie this afternoon. First she is just thinking about her new world, then she is exploring it. She is a keeper for sure.#NaturePhotography

Two treats from early this morning. The River from my deck and cobwebs in the field, same day as in past years.

Yesterday after the waterfalls, I just had a little light left to explore the eastern end of the park which gives you access to the river. The first is of a Killdeer, then two synchronized Egrets. I even did one sunset shot looking towards the Nepean Marina. I have to go back.

Thanks so much, glad you liked it.

Thanks Sue. 🙏

My good fortune while playing golf with some buddies this morning, I stumbled on this #GreenHeron and happened to have my camera in the bag. The feathers raised on his head indicates his displeasure in me finding his special place #NaturePhotography

TimeMachine from yesterday. #1 2016 an Inukshuk at end of day.#2 2017 major fog on the river. #3 2022 an Osprey enjoying a good size bass. #4 2022 Sophie in the river.

A quick visit to #Remic Rapids on Aug 27 to see some of the #sculptures in and beside the #Ottawa River. Here are a few that caught my fancy.

Mud Lake Aug 27. #1 A Bay Breasted Warbler #2 an American Redstart. #3 An Egret hunting. Finally #4, all my ducks in a row.

Aug 27 at 7:10 pm the mother #deer and her #fawn came onto my property. I took the first 2 images through the window, but then the rest from the open door to the deck. I just spoke quietly to them and they stayed. The last image before they entered the bush was at 7:26 #Nature

This is #Dougie a dog belonging to some neighbours who sometimes let me help in keeping this busy little #terrier amused. Today we hung out at my place and then a quick trip to the river.#Naturephotography
