Drove up to Algonquin Park today and saw a female Pine Grosbeak and many American Goldfinch at the Visitor's Centre; Gray Jays, Red-breasted Nuthatch, Chickadees and a Raven at the Spruce Bog Boardwalk; cow moose along Hwy. 60; Pine Marten at Mew Lake.  The Marten hung around and we got to watch it scampering up the trees, eating snow and sunflower seeds.

I was in withdrawal working 9-5 and not being able to go out in the evening.  You are then dependent on good weather on the weekends.  So, I decided to take advantage of the week off and do some travelling.  I have thoroughly enjoyed it, met some great people, saw some birds/animals for the first time and am dreading going back to the desk :(!  Bring on the longer days!!

"To be a better nature photographer, be a better naturalist.The more you know about nature,the more you will see to photograph. Develop a deeper compassion for the world around us, and live by an ethic of concern for the subject matter."
