Last year was an excellent one for wildlife photography, allowing me to choose only subjects that had not previously appeared in my calendars. The standard pattern was still applied: mostly photos from around Vancouver, plus one from my annual UK visit and some from Jasper.
At the last moment two “rare birds” made appearances. So, welcome to the Yellow-breasted Chat and Northern Hawk Owl and apologies to the Lon-tailed Duck and juvenile Great Crested Grebe.
