Been keeping the camera in the car on my commute to and from work. Happened on some wild turkeys just outside the mine gate and was just quick enough to capture 3 images before they disappeared up the hillside.

The doves were hunkered down on a cold and damp morning in a snow-shower mix.

Finally I enjoyed this scene as returning ducks find whatever open water they can on Little Lake in Peterborough Ontario.

Thanks. Yes, they are a pretty common sight around the mine and usually just move off on foot. There was a group of about 6 males. This one was bringing up the rear and took flight just as I found him in the viewfinder.

Very nice shots. The duck shot would make a nice postcard.

Thanks. I'm not much of a winter guy anymore but the moment felt like I was sitting in a post card championing the visual rewards of the season.
