l have been a part of a few successful wildlife rescues and educate people on wildlife and environmental issues. We have helped in issues to save wetlands, woodlands etc.to save the precious life within. It is well worth the effort. We can all learn to live and work together. Education is the key. In 2011 I won an education award from Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority for the work and photography I do. Habitat is fast disappearing and with it, many species are also declining in numbers. So many species can actually tell us the health of our environment and alert us to problems we need to know about. They all need to be protected.

Blue Jays'08/'09

 One of the more colorful birds l have in my yard and enjoy watching is the blue Jay.They are very brilliantly colored ,have quite the sense of humor and when in a large flock are very skiddish. This shot is one of my favorites. Taken in 2008 when l had quite a few jays around. They are very photogenic birds.
You know it's cold out when you see these guys all huddled. It was -30 Deg.F. And l was worried about this jay when l saw him all fluffed up and not moving.
Kept my eye on him every few min through my window.
He moved around a bit then back in the huddle,not fit for man nor beast out there that day with the windchill. After about 10 min. it came around and went to my suet feeder. Just trying to keep warm. It is pretty amazing how these guys survive the cold and weather. Those downy feathers are a very important part of survival.
