We really need to slow down some days and appreciate where we get to call home. Over time it is easy to take BC's west coast for granted as we get stuck in the daily routine. Stop, soak it up & enjoy💚 #vancouverIsland #vancouver #ycc #canada #britishcolumbia #explorebc #explorecanada #salishsea

We really need to slow down some days and appreciate where we get to call home. Over time it is easy to take the west coast of British Columbia for granted as we get stuck in the daily routine. This is my public service announcement to take a pause, soak it up and bask in a moment of gratitude.

Friday afternoon Whistler mountain bike loop after meeting with some of my brand reps for our store. Great way to mix fun and business. #explorebc #beautifulbc #mtblife
Add some brand rep meetings for my store in Squamish and Whistler yesterday. Took advantage of being there and brought my mountain bike with me for some riding. #explorebc #beautifulbc #mountainbike #getoutside
This is, without a doubt the strangest bird I have ever seen. It's like a cross between an owl a nightjar. Although I actually prefer birding on my own without a guide, even if that means not spotting as many birds, I am very glad that I had the sharp eyes of my guide with me on this day in the rainforest or I would never have spotted this very well hidden Sri Lanka Frogmouth.

I am not nearly through all of my bird pictures from Sri Lanka, but I am taking a break to share this picture I took yesterday of an Anna's Hummingbird feeding her babies. I don't think I have ever been happier that I dished out for a long-range lens.

White Winged Scoter: Happy as a Clam Catcher
What an incredible beast a scoter is! Swooping under the water, holding their breath for over a minute as they pick through the rocky bottom for a prize, then surfacing to swallow their dinner whole, shell and all. Those massive nostrils and flashy bill make for quite a striking profile! #scoter #duck #whitewingedscoter #seaduck

Always on the lookout for cool rocks and mysteries.

Sometimes the light hits just right and if you’re lucky, you’ll be there in that moment to appreciate it.
