Buffleheads (Bucephala albeola) are cute but they dive ''all the time'' and you end up with a lot of photos of the sea. 😆 This is the female.

Le petit garrot est bien mignon mais il est toujours en train de plonger alors tu te retrouves avec plein de photos de la mer. Ceci est la femelle.

If you'd like to capture the herring spawn on Vancouver Island, I offer daily photo tours in March. We photograph this amazing event from the shore, not from a boat so you don't need to worry about seasickness or the tour being cancelled because of a rough sea.

Max 3 guests per tour to limit our impact on wildlife. Learn more on my website: https://www.catherinebabault.com/workshops

A sea lion with a herring in its mouth faces the camera. The beast is in the sea and only its head emerges from the water.

She has clearly mastered the technical aspects of her art, and that mastery frees her to bear witness to the spirit of joy, discovery and delight that informs her engagement with the creatures and elements she portrays.'' - Tom Sandborn, Vancouver Sun.

Laughing Falls, Little Yoho River

#WaterfallWednesday #waterfall #river #hiking #bc #britishcolumbia #photography

Photograph of a narrow waterfall falling between two brown rock walls, with the river continuing its course in front. Above the fall on the rock, on the banks and all around, narrow and very straight conifers, small shrubs and moss in different shades of green.

#WildlifeWednesday This chunky black bear had only one thing in mind: eat salmon. Dozens of salmon were going up stream navigating their way around rocks in shallow waters when I took these photos. Do you think the bear caught a salmon?

#photography #nature #bears #VancouverIslandWildlife #VancouverIsland #BritishColumbia #Canada

A large black bear is in a shallow fast-flowing river with rocks here and there. It stares at the water and has one paw raised above water. He is super focused on the fish.

In this second photo of the sequence, the bear starts running in the river, splashing water around itself. Its eyes are locked on a salmon that is not of the frame.

This black bear stood in the middle of the river and focused on a spot where many salmon had gathered. The bear was keeping a close eye on their movement, waiting for the right moment to jump and catch one.

Mrs. and Mr. Wood Duck (Aix sponsa) on an early morning stroll at a marsh.

Spotted during a recent photo tour. We heard their call first so we approached very slowly and quietly.

#photography #nature #birds #VancouverIsland #BritishColumbia #Canada #VancouverIslandWildlife

A female and male wood ducks on a fallen tree with moss that is resting above a marsh. There are trees in the background and they are out of focus. The wood duck is about 43–52 centimetres (17–20.5 inches) long. Both male and female have a characteristic head crest. The crest of the male has two longitudinal white stripes. His purple and green head, red-brown breast flecked with white, and bronze sides are readily identifiable. The distinguishing feature of the female is a white eye-ring; her body is a sooty gray-brown, with white throat and white streaked breast.

This gorgeous chunky black bear just spotted a delicious salmon. At this time of year, bears consume up to 20,000 calories per day. It is called hyperphagia. I can only hope to eat that much! 😆

Huge black bear standing in a river, water flowing fast over its feet. The bear faces the photographer but its eyes are focused on a fish a few metres in front of them.
