Lenz Addiction

Lenz Addiction ***ir . love it all. Only available in Canada. I specialize in portrait and wildlife photography.

Visit https://www.lenzaddictionphotography.ca/store to purchase wildlife prints! Sometimes I focus on one more than the other, but they are both my passion. My goal with my wildlife photography is to bring our wild animals to society's attention. These images are meant to be a reminder of how precious our wildlife is, and that these animals and our environment need to be protected for the health of the planet, and for our future generations to enjoy.

This lovely bird is called Anna's Hummingbird.

Anna’s hummingbirds may be tiny, but they have plenty of personality. The males are especially eye-catching, with brilliant pink feathers on their head and throat that can look almost black in one moment and suddenly flash bright magenta when they catch the light. They’re curious, feisty little birds and will often perch nearby, keeping a close watch on everything going on around them.

This image was taken in 2024, when we were fortunate enough to come across this little Boreal Owl.

Boreal owls are one of those owls you can search for again and again and still rarely see. Small, quiet and incredibly well hidden, they spend their days tucked into the boreal forest and become active mostly after dark. They hunt primarily voles and mice, often listening from a perch before dropping onto prey. Finding one during the day takes patience and a fair bit of luck—which makes finally spotting one pretty special.

This image was taken at Frank Lake, Alberta last May. Up until a couple of years ago I had never see an America Avocet.

American avocets are striking shorebirds, easily recognized by their long, slender, upturned bills and bold black-and-white wings. During breeding season, their head and neck take on a beautiful warm cinnamon colour. They often forage in shallow wetlands by sweeping their bills from side to side through the water, searching for small aquatic insects and other tiny prey. Graceful both on the ground and in flight, they are one of the most distinctive birds found around prairie ponds, marshes and shallow lakes.

Look, it’s not an owl! lol! This beautiful bird is a Northern Flicker, a member of the woodpecker family. Their gorgeous colours make them wonderful subjects to photograph, although getting a good shot can be a challenge—they move quickly and can be quite skittish. I got lucky with this one and managed to catch it sitting still long enough for a photo in a park in Calgary.

This image was taken in 2024. I happened to spot a great grey owl sitting on a post during one of my usual country drives and was lucky enough to watch him dive for a vole. Unfortunately for me, my battery died just as he ate it—so this is it, folks!

Great Grey Owls are masters of patience. They often hunt by sitting quietly on a perch, listening for the faint movements of small mammals hidden beneath grass or snow. Their exceptional hearing allows them to pinpoint prey they may never actually see, and they can remain almost perfectly still while they listen. Despite their impressive size, much of their bulk is feathers—they are surprisingly lightweight for such a large-looking owl.

Great Grey Owl, central Alberta.

It’s not very often that a hawk stays put long enough to let you photograph it, let alone lets you watch it preen! I was driving along a country road when I spotted this guy perched on a post. I fully expected him to fly off the moment I stopped, but to my surprise, he stayed. I photographed him from inside my truck while he calmly preened, seemingly unconcerned by my presence. I was so grateful for the opportunity to simply sit, watch and photograph such a beautiful bird.
