Prairie #Warbler: a beautiful and active #bird of semi-open habitat, with a cheerful ascending zee-zee-zee-zee-zee song. Generally rare in Ontario, Canada, they are locally 'common' breeders in eastern #GeorgianBay and southern Shield habitats. Anyone know what bug it's eating?

Tonight, this Green #Frog is feeling a bit blue....

Eye to eye with a #frog. They're just such amazing animals! #nature #amphibians #NorfolkCounty

With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more

Getting the lowdown on a serpentine pal.

Beautiful, charismatic, and inquisitive seem to epitomize the Northern Watersnake. Wonderful Wednesday #Wildlife. #GeorgianBay #snakes!

We now have Piping Plover chicks on the beach at both @WasagaBeachPP and @PresquilePP! These chicks are extremely vulnerable at this young age and require support from everyone visiting their breeding beaches.

Congratulations @WildlifeHCanada. I love these stamps! They continue to provide needed support to Great Lakes wetland research & conservation programs including @BirdsCanada's Marsh Monitoring Program.(Thank you, btw) Buy this year's stamps at

Congratulations to Wildlife Habitat Canada on the occasion of their 40th anniversary! Thank you for four great decades of conservation. Best wishes and all the best for many more years of collaboration. Enjoy the video panorama with 40 years of duck stamp artwork.

Driftwood may not look like much, but it is important habitat for many creatures, such as small reptiles and amphibians, and small mammals! If you come across driftwood during your visit to the park, please leave it as you found it, to keep animal homes and shelters intact.

Will be presenting at the Simcoe Library tomorrow on gardening with native plants & avoiding species that can become invasive in our surrounding natural habitats. Doors open 11:30AM, talk starts at 12 Noon. A fundraiser for the Norfolk Library System. #Norfolk #Gardening #Nature

There should be avian prizes for song volume adjusted for bird size. If that were the case, #Wrens and R-c Kinglets would surely be among the winners! I love the loud, tinkling, boisterous song of tiny Winter Wrens emanating from shady #Hemlock ravines. #NorfolkCounty #LongPoint

Prepping for my slow birding walk next Saturday (June 1). The adult kids came along to help. https://t.co/i6IC4WlJhN

It's been interesting to watch & photograph Northern Flickers excavate a nesting cavity. Some photos capture the moment they come to the cavity opening with a beak full of wood chips & sawdust, with eyes closed (makes sense). Other images show them shaking wood from their beaks

Beautiful white fungi cling to a tree trunk against the verdant greens of a #Carolinian #forest in spring. The subtle back-lighting seems to add to the ecological intimacy - and to the contrasts implicit with #fungi and the new growth. #nature #hiking #NorfolkCounty
