I saw TWO Canadian Lynx about two weeks ago now. It was about 30 minutes after sunset and I had to push the ISO way high (12800) so this pic is pretty grainy. It's only the 3 time I've seen lynx in my 15 years in the North.

This is a Monday morning-looking fox if I ever saw one! Yawning and scratching and looking quite bothered about being awakened from a nap. I have to admit that the warmth in the spring sun is making napping outdoors quite delightful.

Had a great encounter with a handful of ptarmi the last week of March. I've been hoping to catch a glimpse of these birds as their feathers change into their summer pattern, but no luck as yet. Fingers crossed I have an opportunity to see a few during the spring moult before they head north for the summer.

I love spotting owls along the roadside in early spring. This year I've seen numerous Northern Hawk Owls along the highways. This one was particularly tolerant of me approaching for photos. I have yet to spot a Great Grey or Great Horned but the weather is warming and the snow is starting to melt so I'm hopeful I'll spot at least one this spring..

I went up the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Joint Venture Road this weekend with some friends in search of caribou, wolves, and rock ptarmigan. We saw two out of these three species so all in all not too bad.

My favourite encounter was with this red fox who had something happen to the middle part of his tail. He was cleaning up the remains of a couple of caribou that had been stuffed in the snowbank along the edge of the road.

I haven't been up the winter road in years and I'd forgotten how beautiful the landscape is along the route. When the sun came out, the light and shadows at play on the snow was magical.

I’m back from an extended trip that took me across 5 countries in South America where I had incredible encounters with wildlife.

While this page has been dedicatated to photos of wildlife in and around Yellowknife, I’ll be sharing some images from my travels alongside images of the wild locals.

Was so SO lucky to spot this gorgeous Chilean Puma in Torres del Paine. She had 3 cubs with her and after watching her nurse, she left them hidden in the scrub to go hunt guanacos.
