Saving the Creatures Photography

Saving the Creatures Photography I am a wildlife photographer, environmentalist and speaker for conservation efforts. My photos are for sale in the form of greeting cards and framed images.

I am a wildlife photographer volunteering locally and working with consrvation efforts, since 2008. I have been helping to protect the Laurel Creek Headwaters ESL (environmentally sensitive landscape) in the Region of Waterloo, Ontario. My photography is used as a pictorial inventory for proof of species in an area, protection of landscape ecology, traffic studies and wildlife road issues, etc. I

have been a speaker and also participate in venues to advocate for the environment and attend some regional council meetings when volunteering with Laurel Creek Headwaters ESL as an advocate. I have also volunteered as a photographer for Wildlife Haven Waterloo working with the yearly fundraising calendar, speaking engagements, etc. and a onshore volunteer with Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (ocean conservation) and volunteer as a photographer with the London, Ontario chapter. This brings my love of nature to others, bringing awareness to our community. The photography supports conservation efforts. (Please note that I create my own greetings and framed photos from second hand and recycled materials to be kind to the environment)

I was driving between Cambridge & Kitchener back in May, and I heard a warbler calling.
I pulled into a cementary to look for the bird and look who I found. She was looking for grub snacks. When I called her skunk buddy, this is the look she gave me, and then she stuck her head back in the grass to find more grubs. As a rule you really have to upset a Striped skunk to have them spray, as it takes their defense system down for a while, before they can spray again. I was in my SUV, so not much of a threat to her. I believe this animal to have kits so this is why I call her a female.

It is known that Sea otters carry a rock in their skin pouch to break clams open, sometimes they carry their favorite rock for their whole life.

River otters are known to live in North America's fresh water rivers and lakes.
The image of an otter playing a fiddle was done by Robert Bateman, who is a Canadian naturalist and painter born in Toronto, Ontario. Apparently he had a great love for the River otters.
