As you may have gathered from previous blogs, I am very fortunate to live in the Calgary area, close to the Canadian Rockies. I have had the good fortune to have met, and taken some inspirational courses by John E Marriot (link) and others. A few weeks ago (before all the floods in Southern Alberta), I went out into the Rockies and saw 5 black bears (one of which was in it’s brown phase), numerous mule and white-tailed deer, mountain sheep, ospreys, bald eagles and of course, fantastic scenery. Some of those images are now on the site.

So I am very grateful for where I live, and I hope that I can share some of that good fortune with you, by showcasing my images. For starters, here are pictures of the  the Brown Black bear I mentioned, by the side of the road, enjoying all the dandelions, another black bear, also eating a dandelion and some mountain sheep by the road, not eating dandelions.
