Otter on Dock

Early one morning, I went down to this dock and saw a little family of otters swimming towards the dock. This guy was curious enough to get on board to check for any goodies, while the rest of them hid under the dock. I was quite far way, so even with a zoom I had to crop these images to get a decent composition.

Bunny Visit

Arriving home one fine I met this bold bunny by our sidewalk. He didn’t scurry away, so I got my camera and did a photo shoot with this cooperative critter.

We were driving by Qualicum Beach early one morning during our camping trip on Vancouver Island, when we spotted these deer right on the beach! I quickly parked and grabbed my camera was able to get some nice shots. The mom and girls made a wonderful contrast with the deer! I’m not sure if this just normal to the locals to have these tame deer to go for stroll by the ocean. They soon bounded off though – across a busy street, with vehicles stopped in a big line to let them spring daintily across the road as if they owned the place. Quite an experience!

I threw some birdseed here to see who might show up. Does anyone know the names of these birds? The small cute is popularly known here as a chickadee.
