Love, on the fly.

Tree swallows never seem to slow down. Even in what started as a moment rest, there's always something that one (or two) can be doing. 🤷

The lovers share a meal.

I wasn't quick enough to capture this male Northern cardinal give his mate a choice seed via kiss but I still felt lucky to capture them together having this little snack break while gathering twigs for their nest.

Northern cardinals are socially monogamous and often mate for life. Although some pairs DO split and seek out new mates in between breeding seasons.

It's safe to say there would be a lot less people interested in and engaged with documenting, studying and protecting our natural world if it wasn't for the lifelong work of people like David Attenborough.

I can say for certain that my love and curiosity for nature has only been heightened throughout the years by the tireless work of this man, Jane Goodall, David Suzuki and countless others like them.

Sentinel of the swamp........and most wetlands.

The great blue heron's vision is roughly 3 times more detailed than that of a humans. Equipped with a natural built in 'zoom lens' that can instantaneously switch between zoomed in and macro vision, this birds eyesight and the details it can see rival even the best cameras and lenses we humans have at our disposal.

I don't usually mess with landscape photography that often (at least beyond taking the picture and forgetting about it haha) but when you're given a scene like this you just have to take advantage of it.
