We had a new backyard visitor caught on camera early this morning. Porcupine! #yegwildlife

I wondered why that insect (bee of some kind?) was sticking straight out, and then I looked closer and saw the goldenrod crab spider having it for lunch. #spiders #goldenrodcrabspider #yegwildlife

We had a nocturnal visitor!

From the abundance of little meadow voles in our yard, there is now one (or two?) fewer.

Duckling seeing me off to work this morning. #yegwildlife #ducks

One of 2 red-breasted nuthatches that I counted for the #yegchristmasbirdcount in 2024. I also counted 1 downy woodpecker, 15 house finches, 11 house sparrows, 3 magpies, 1 northern flicker, 1 pigeon, and 2 blue jays. #yegbirds #yegwildlife

These two cobra chickens have been nesting on this soccer field for years now. They come back every year and it's always a pleasure to see them. #yeg #yegwildlife
