Full post: egrets, wood and mallard ducks, and a great blue heron

A great blue heron stands in a marshy area surrounded by tall reeds. Three wood ducks are perched on a branch over a body of water with a blurred green and yellow background. A mallard duck with mottled brown feathers stands on a rock beside a body of water. Two wood ducks are perched on a tree branch over water, basking in the sunlight.

Some shots of egrets I took this past summer in Grenadier pond. (1/3)

a mix of urban and nature shots

Here I took a mix of some urban and some nature shots.

Close up on the end of a log, with the background blurred out. A spiderweb backlit by the late afternoon sun. A couple trees leaning over in the late afternoon beside a pond. A close-up of a blue stain-glass leaf. A chip truck parked beside a wood fence. A close-up of a bulge in a tree. Some trees and vines growing against a railway barrier.

Thanks for reading/viewing this far!

the trees of high park

Here are even more shots of trees from High Park! (Yes, I just keep taking them, and make no apologies!)

Tree in an S shape, among brush and other trees. Three trees in front of Grenadier pond. Tall tree rising up beside a path with fence. Some people sitting on a bench, beneath a tree full of white blossoms.

Thanks for reading!
