I can't believe it has been five months since we visited Switzerland and as I look at these pictures again, I realize how much I love it there.

This is a shot of the Lower Grindelwald Glacier. We hiked the trail from Pfingstegg to Baregg.

the following are from last week out in the Muskoka's. Spoiler'd only because there are a few of them and don't want to bomb the thread.
Spoiler!

I've wanted to do light trails for a hundred years. I finally tried it tonight.

I did a little loop South and East of Calgary today.

I saw a few ducks...





...saw evidence of intelligent beaver,



...and I saved a fish's life.

Use the share button, the little arrow swooping right, then select BBcode. Choose what size you'd like to post then copy the long link and simply paste it, no (IMG) (/IMG) etc needed. Fiddle with the size option to get the best fit.

Love that first photo by the way, what a crazy amount.

Thanks.

Yeah, it was an insane amount of ducks. There seems to be a lot of large flocks of ducks and geese hanging around this year, but this one took the cake. It reminded me of a locust invasion.

I'm disappointed the foreground birds were out of focus, rather than the background in that second one. It could have been a good picture too had I done it right.

I think it's gone unnoticed by the general public, but duck and goose populations have exploded.

The daily hunting limit for migratory birds are:

8 ducks per day, plus
8 Canada geese per day, plus
50 snow geese per day

amongst other limits.

those are great photos of the amount of birds that migrate through Alberta each year. Well done.

I got dragged to Heritage Park this past weekend, without any snow the "Christmas Village" is pretty underwhelming. Also shooting photos at high-noon is frustrating.
