I’ve been watching (from a distance; so, lousy photos) a pair of Cooper’s hawks build a nest over the past few weeks, and am very hopeful :) #TorontoWildlife #Birds #Hawks

I was hoping a bird would come close enough for me to photograph — so I ignored the sound of a “dog” running up to me. By the time my peripheral vision kicked in, I had no time to focus my camera 😛 Still, it was a treat to see such a healthy-looking fox! #UrbanWildlife #RedFox #TorontoWildlife

I had such a nice walk in a Toronto ravine today. A red-tailed hawk flew past my head to land in a tree; I watched a pair of Cooper’s hawks bring sticks to a nest; then saw a pair of wood ducks sitting on a branch over a pond. Nature is the best 🙂 #UrbanWildlife #TorontoWildlife

My little friend is napping in the snow :) Blurry photo because I don’t like spooking owls and haven’t got a huge lens. #Owls #EasternScreechOwl #Birds #TorontoWildlife

Went birding for the first time since the holidays started. Was hoping to capture a common redpoll, and found a great horned owl instead! 🥰 #urbanbirding , #torontowildlife , #ontariobirds

Another good reason to leash dogs in Toronto: distempered raccoons. I wish there was more we could do to help. #UrbanWildlife #raccoons #distemper #TorontoWildlife
