September 2018
We’ve stumbled into a place of magic. Autumn and winter built a palace, and look at their art!
It’s quiet now, with skies lightening after last night’s snow. Spruce grouse wander the roads.
…roads: pathways past miraculous beauty.
And – this!
A bear! Three bears in fact; mama and two cubs of the year. They must be wondering who has repainted their forest, but seeing these wonderful creatures contrast the white is spellbinding.
Black bears are a special species to me after all the time I spent with them out west. I’ve travelled so far driven by the hope of seeing one again, and here there are three! Christmas come early, I think.
A good moment. A special moment. The type of moment that makes you realise how precious our wild neighbours are.

Adele, beautiful post! Your Autumn/Winter images are fabulous! As you know Mother Nature can be unpredictable in Canada! And the weather, well, like they say: If you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes!
Happy Christmas to you!

Yes, and I think that’s down to a wait of one minute in the prairie provinces 😉
Happy Christmas!

Few days ago, on a way to Denman island, we were thinking that seeing Orcas passing through the straight between Denman and Hornby island would make a cherry on top of a cake this year was. And they were there, one hundred meters from our cabin, hunting 🙂 I know what that feels like with bears too, but there are no bears on this island – or not that we know about 😀 Anyway, they might be asleep by now.

That must have been an incredible moment with the orcas!
I did see a bear in Tahsis in December one year and he was definitely awake and walking about…so who knows! 🙂
