On August 3rd I visited the Alberta Birds of Prey Centre. It was really a unique experience to get so close to these majestic creatures. Take a look in my North American Birds gallery to see the new photos.

This is my first update since moving to the Rocky Mountains for my summer job. There are quite a few new scenic photos as well as a few new birds that I managed to track down.

Check out my new gallery on Photoportfolios.net

My article entitled "Making the Most of Costa Rica" was recently published on www.naturephotographers.net. Check out the articles section on the site to read all about my Costa Rican location tips.

Today I posted a massive update including new birds such as the Yellow-headed Blackbird, American Avocet, Wilson's Phalarope and many more. I also added heaps of new scenic shots from my drive across Canada as well as new travel journal from my drive entitled "Oh Canada".
