Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) at Tiny Marsh near Elmvale, Ontario, Canada, early July 2017. For such a fierce-looking bird they have a surprisingly high-pitched, almost timid call. Taken with a Nikon D7100 with Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary lens with polarizing filter

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been interested in photography. My dad & both my older brothers had decent cameras, and I can remember being really excited when my twin brother & I got our first instamatic cameras when we were kids. In my teens I had a 35mm fixed-lens camera, kind of a hybrid between an instamatic & a REAL camera! I bought myself a Ricoh KR-10, 35mm camera for a college graduation present & soon after, my first telephoto lens. I can still tell you the very first shots I took with that lens! I’ve also always had a deep affinity with nature. I grew up in the south end of St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada and spent MANY happy hours wandering the woods & fields of the Niagara Escarpment & the 12-Mile-Creek valley....
