The Assiniboine River broke up yesterday. I’m assuming there must’ve been an ice jam upstream that let go releasing all of this ice and debris. It’s been flowing like this for over 24 hours. #Winnipeg

Fun Fact: Some small bats can eat up to 1,000 bugs in just an hour 🦇🍽️🦟 #naturalhabitat #naturalhabitat shorts #naturalhabitok

QT with something white.

I would be happy to take any counsellor on my morning walk with me.

A question to all of my fellow #CameraTrap people. All three of my cameras have stopped working. My Browning and Bushnell aren't triggering and the Stealth Cam doesn't recognize any card. What are your go-tos for reliable cameras?

Happy #InternationalBeaverDay . I’m lucky to live in a place where beavers are fairly common to the point where I can spend time getting to know them. They have a profound impact on the surrounding habitat and it’s amazing to watch them work.

Just finished my sister’s birthday cake. Lemon cake, with lemon curd filling and raspberry buttercream. The orchids were fun.

Found lynx tracks disappearing into the forest yesterday morning. Always a fun find. It would be even more fun if I found the animal that made them. 😊

Anyone who has been a student at UWinnipeg since 2018 needs to see this, current or not. This is insane, and could have been better prevented with a competent security team.

Nom nom nom. :)

Lake Winnipeg is a big lake and I love walking on it this time of year.

This is a ridiculously amazing experience! If you can ever fit it into your budget, I highly recommend it. You might even get me as your guide :)

Last night's aurora didn't manifest down here in Manitoba so I went back to my photos of last year's geomagnetic storm that happened almost the same night in March. It was quite something. The storm was so strong the auroral oval stretched a long way south of me.

Apparently, biologists are not human :)

One on each end of the world. 1) North Knife Lake, Manitoba - 200 km to the nearest road. Amazing fishing. 2) Melaleuca - southern Tasmania - where I got to see the endemic and endangered orange-bellied parrot.

A magical moment on my drive home last night. What I thought it was a coyote walking towards me on the road was a wolf. It was joined by another and they were for the most part unconcerned by my presence. They tolerated me watching for 5 minutes from my car until it got dark.

A pileated woodpecker, making sure everybody in the forest knows where he is.
