Canada Geese - The Canadian Bird

Canada Geese are known for their seasonal migrations. Most Canada Geese have staging or resting areas where they join up with others. Their autumn migration can be seen from September to the beginning of November. The early migrants have a tendency to spend less time at rest stops and go through the migration much faster. The later birds usually spend more time at rest stops.

Canada Geese are very common in Calgary. I was able to photograph several fearless geese who were more than happy to pose for the camera.







Young Owl - Hanging Out with Mom

Every year owls call Carburn Park in Calgary home. In the spring it is almost expected to see mother owl with her young. I had an opportunity to photograph the perching duo.
