A couple of male rednecks had a disagreement over a female and it got violent!
The female looked and sounded like she was cheering them on!

Thanks to Bob we found three Common Loons at Beaumaris Lake. These shots a long and crop, we did not get as close as Bob.

Bernd, and Don where also there, and got some great shots.

My three shots where of three different Loons, they show different head shapes and body colouring.

Great Blue Heron hunting

I watched this Heron hunting for about an hour when he caught a muskrat, drowned it by holding it under water several times until it quit moving, then had it for lunch, and went right back hunting.
