A beautiful encounter during a recent photo tour on Vancouver Island.

It's a photo that I had imagined for years: an owl on a mossy branch.

A young black bear looking for salmon on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

Interesting to observe them (from a safe and respectful distance) and see their different characters. This young bear had the attitude of a teenager, challenging the alpha bear in the group and trying to get salmon from others.

A sea otter (Enhydra lutris) emerges from the sea after looking for crabs and clams in a kelp bed. I was sitting on a rocky outcrop on the edge of the water hoping that it would come closer so I could get a clear shot with my telephoto lens.

Time to rest. Be nice to each other. 😊

C'est le temps du repos. Soyez gentils entre vous.

A backlit pine tree stands on a rocky shoreline made of ancient volcanic rock as the sun rises on the west coast of Vancouver Island. The sky has pink hues, mountains on the horizon have a blue tint and the sea looks calm.
