Thinking the views are not accurate. I have looked a numerous photos of members and yet their views, as do mine, show 0. Don't think this is running right. --- Timestamp: 2026-09-14T15:50:35.830Z Page: https://photoclub.canadiangeographic.ca/feedback User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/153.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

The Side Eye

A praying mantis can detect motion from up to 60 feet away, and I've definitely been spotted, given the look on its face as I approached to capture a shot as this European mantis hung in its preferred inverted hunting position!

A tiny green tree frog finds the perfect, fuzzy spot to rest and watch the world go by in it's wetland world. Vancouver Island.

aurora from the sky

After nearly six months without seeing the aurora on my overseas flights to Europe due to the long daylight hours of the northern summer, it was great to finally see the Northern Lights again. This display was photographed at 37,000 feet over Hudson Bay while flying from Calgary, Canada, to London, UK. From above much of the lower atmosphere, the aurora was incredibly vivid, with bright green curtains and pillars accompanied by beautiful red and magenta colour higher in the display. It was a spectacular welcome back to dark skies on the transatlantic route.

Family Gathering

A family of Sandhill Cranes gathered in the late-day light in Mississippi Mills. One of those moments when the light, the setting and the wildlife all come together.

Quiet Refuge

A quiet moment near Churchill, Manitoba. Two polar bears resting together among the rocks, seemingly unconcerned with the world around them. Sometimes the most memorable wildlife encounters are the quiet ones.

On the prowl

Driving the concession roads of Mississippi Mills when I spotted this red fox working its way through a field. It paid little attention to me and simply carried on with the hunt.

Against the Grain

I was out for my usual evening drive along the backroads of Mississippi Mills when I spotted this deer. At first I thought it was a doe, but when I pulled out the camera and zoomed in, I realized it was a buck — with a very unusual set of antlers. Instead of growing upward, both antlers are growing downward alongside his face. One possible explanation is that the small areas of the skull where the antlers grow, called pedicles, developed at an unusual angle. This could be something he was born with or the result of an earlier injury. The fact that both antlers are growing in a similar direction makes this particularly interesting. I'll be keeping an eye out for him next season to see if his new antlers grow the same way.
