      It is my big pleasure that you like those shots Summer, it is a extremely busy season for me though, as you name implies i just came back from hot south and enjoy quite the summer breeze in far north.,.

  2. I enjoyed your photos once again. I’ve only seen a Blue Jay, love them too. Any bird is lovely to see. Those blossoms are beautiful

    Indeed you have seen some beautiful sights this summer. Quite a change from just the artic. Even though in your photos here there is still colors that light up the camera. I too visited Niagara on the lake. That town has some of the most beautiful flowers. Your arrear of birds are just beautiful. Looks like you have had a wonderful summer with your tours of Canada. Summer has finally arrived with some heat at our place. I was wondering if it would ever show up. Hope you are still enjoying yours. Hugs Carrie

    • arcticwl says:

      Carrie, the weather here is still pretty nice,even better though it is bit cooler down. It is said there are too many bugs and mosquitoes, the worst year in past decades. yes, traveled to some of small towns in Ontario with family in this summer. it was hot but enjoyed it. it is said this would be hot summer based on Chinese Zodiac, and hope hot summer come into mountains and heat up your ranch.
      hugs.

    Beautiful Summer, beautiful pictures! love the last picture the most.
    谢谢您在51 的牧童之家留言,第一张的horned Grebe 我也在Mississauga 的 Marie Curtis Park 照过。
    终于遇到了也爱拍鸟的人,以后就多了一个拿着板凳来学习的地方了。
    跟着您的footprint 慢慢欣赏~~

    看不到图干着急
    我再补一个月前的博克呢!现在又要出发了~~

  10. arcticwl says:

    你真行,游遍世界啊,图一时找不到没关系,等有空了再上,先尽享你的旅程吧。

  11. Olivia says:

    Those turkey like costumes look so funny to me! 🙂 Did you use panning technique while trying to shoot these wildlifes (for example, the merganser in Bow River)? I noticed the background has a very nice blur to it, which suggest subject in motion…

    • arcticwl says:

      you have very cute sense, the dance actually was simulating turkeys dance. i did not use panning for the merganser shot as it was not that fast, but i used for other flying birds.

    你开微薄了没?记得加我啊。
    而且你可以把wp blog的地址写在微薄链接上:)

    • arcticwl says:

      Y,最近一直很忙,也没时间更新。估计你在玩围脖,把WP给记了,还好密码找回来了。
      我受朋友之邀开了一个,但没时间打理,成荒地了,等我上去看能不能找到你。

    兄弟好!久未联络,近来可好!
    这几个月你一定很忙,看你好久不打理博客了,呵呵
    国内现在已不能上WP,我这是利用在印度出差的机会来看看朋友们。
    我博客只好搬到新浪,得空去我新浪博客坐坐吧,blog.sina.com.cn/dengaiwu
    我的为微博名是“”北非谍影2011”,记得常联系啊!
    祝兄弟一切顺利,万事如意!

    • arcticwl says:

      老邓啊,看你最近又出山了,但高兴。
      荒了几个月了,昨天终于得空上来除了除草,把那一抹秋色留住。
      我有空一定到你的新浪上看看你这个北非谍影的诡秘行踪去。不过我没有那些微博,那时还得注册一个。
