Got a surprise fly-by from this Great Blue Heron while at a small creek. I like how the forested background turned out. #birds #wildlife #nature #photography #Canada #Ontario #Nikon

Spent a few days photographing one of the three Cooper's Hawks at the local conservation area. Super cool to see them case each other around the woods. Here are some of the photos taken when it was at eye level. #birds #wildlife #nature #photography #Canada #Ontario #Nikon
