The Rockhopper Penguin may be one of the world’s smallest penguins but have such personalities with their yellow crest of feathers and their loud sounds. Hope to see one in the wild someday but in the interim enjoyed this fella at the Penguin Plunge (taken at the Calgary Zoo).

I wasn’t walking - I was safely in my vehicle watching this black bear walk along the ditch in the countryside. Sure was a pretty bear to watch. Hope it had a safe remainder to last season and emerges again this Spring. Taken in Alberta, Canada.

Great Gray Owl flying low to listen for movement beneath the snow for the next potential meal. I didn’t see this owl catch anything but it made several attempts to dive into the snow and perched on several trees nearby listening for movement. These owls are considered very specialized hunters (particularly in winter) due to their exceptional hearing that can locate small rodents under deep snow - so I’m confident it was successful at some point during this time.

These are the winter blues I enjoy - a calm lake with open water and snow capped on the mountains during a sunrise. On this day the roads were also quite clear for traveling - which makes enjoying the destination that much more! Taken in Banff National Park.
