Campbellford

It's the holiday long weekend here, which meant I didn't have to work Monday and instead was able to go on an adventure. We decided to go to Campbellford for the day. Campbellford is known for its suspension bridge and being part of the Trent Severn waterway. The first picture in this post is not actually from Campbellford but from right down my street. There is an osprey nest being built on one of the poles that are set up for them which is exciting. I pass by this pole every day on my way to work so ill be able to check the progress of the nest and soon the babies. The following two pictures are from the Trent Severn Waterway. The first of the two pictures is looking down the waterway towards Trenton and the second picture is of lock 11 of the waterway which is very high. The next picture is taken from the Ranney River Suspension bridge that crosses the river. Its also looking down towards Trenton. The last picture is of a giant toonie in the middle of a park in Campbellford.

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.
