It's the time of the season... 🎷😉 Sometimes in nature you see something you can't unsee. And if you're me, you take pictures of it so everyone else has to see it too 😅 I swear there's a smile on his face in the first photo... #eastcoastkin #wildlifephotography #mammals #ontario #canada #nikon

I'm not a mouse expert, but I *think* this is a young deer mouse. I say "young" because it was exceptionally tiny and it did an accidental somersault in the midst of running. (Carp, Ontario) #eastcoastkin #naturephotography #mammals #mouse #babyanimals #wildlifephotography #ontario #canada #nikon

One of the two snappers I helped cross the road this weekend in Montague Township, Ontario. He kindly obliged for the photo, but was less than grateful when I assisted him along the final stretch to the opposite side 😅 #eastcoastkin #naturephotography #turtles #wildlifephotography #ontario #canada

This beaver in Carp, Ontario is not yet full grown, but judging by his tail, he's already had his fair share of life experience. ❤️‍🩹 #eastcoastkin #naturephotography #beavers #mammals #wildlifephotography #ottawa #myottawa #ontario #canada #nikon
