Winter Wonderland

Since the first semester is over I was able to return home and have been able to take pictures again which I have enjoyed very much. The first picture is from Orleans which is a suburb near Ottawa. I was visiting my girlfriend and her family when I was there and we went out for a walk and stumbled upon this stream which was framed perfectly by the trees. The rest of the pictures are all from Stratford and more specifically the lake in Stratford. The first picture from Stratford is just showing the path around the lake and the snowy landscape and semi-frozen lake. The next picture is the path that goes around the lake and it is meant to show just how many trees there are around the lake. The picture after that is displaying how the snow was covering the trees and in the picture, you can see the house and the reflection of it all on the water. The next picture I just thought looked cool as it is displaying the curve of the island in the middle of the lake and the snow in the trees. The last picture is my favourite. It is my favourite because of all the shadows and the colours on display. The sun had just peeked out from behind the cloud and was lighting up a nice part of the lake while the rest remained in shadow. The snow was clinging to the trees while the semi-frozen lake was covered in snow, it looked like a winter wonderland.

My yearly trip up to my family's "Hunt Camp" was last weekend. It was a great time seeing the family and seeing the beautiful landscape that it sits on.  Main Lake at the Camp Reflections in the Lake Reflations on the other side of the lake A scenic lookout on the way home Rockingham Church on the way home

So Many Woodpeckers

Recently I went on a walk in a local wooded area, for most of the walk I didn't see anything other than some Black-Capped Chickadees until near the end when the first came alive. I saw four different species of woodpecker and a giant Raven. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get a photo of all of the birds that were there. Then on the walk home from the wooded area, I came across a group of house finches feeding on some berries in a tree, where one posed perfectly in the bright winter sun for me. Mallard Duck from a previous walk. One of many trees with signs of woodpecker activity. Black-Capped Chickadee. Downey Woodpecker. Pileated Woodpecker. Black-Capped Chickadee. Pileated Woodpecker.

Driftwood Provincial Park 2023

The first and most likely only camping trip this year was just taken on the July 1st long weekend. It is probably going to be the only trip because we just got a puppy and aren't quite at the stage yet of taking her camping.  In some other news I got a new camera. Henrys was having an trade in event and for once was offering a fair deal. I traded in my Nikon D7200 and got a Sony Alpha a6600 instead. I got a 70-350mm lens and have an 16-50mm lens on order that should hopefully be in mid August. That is currently why all my photos are zoomed in and there is no landscape ones.  Sunset from the beach before the storm. Taken on my Pixel 6 My new camera with zoom lens.
