Amherst Island - Kingston. This was luck. Watching a pair of Killdeer in their mating ritual is not something you can plan for. Before the male hopped onto her back he approached closely and she remained steady. I knew what was possible so I grabbed the camera and a few seconds later he was on top. The whole scene lasted about 10 seconds.

Kingston - This is perhaps the most common view of a Great Horned Owl for birders in eastern Canada, unless it is on its nest. The silhouette is unmistakable. In the West it seems to be more common to find them exposed in the daytime.

Wolfe Island- Kingston. Despite another snow dump today, winter is getting long in the tooth. A few Snowies are still present in the Kingston area. This attractive bird sat concealed on the ground until late in the day. I got a few pictures in low light with its eyes open, always a plus.

Wolfe Island - Kingston. Despite multiple trips there this winter, it was only the second time I came across a Short-eared Owl.

Wolfe Island - Kingston - Despite the lateness of the hour, this old male had a hard time waking up from his nap. There are only a few birds left this week.

Kingston - Wolfe Island. This striking adult male looks right at home in a rock pile. It looks like he is back in the Arctic.

St. Rose - I was photographing this bird on a pole for about five minutes when it took off hunting. It flew close overhead and I couldn't even get it all in but that was OK. The light was perfect.
