It’s a magical surprise — meeting a barred owl perched calmly in a blooming park in Victoria, BC, right by the parking lot. 📸Nikon z6 — 24-120 f:1/4 Yes, it was that close! #onlyinvictoriabc #photooftheday #photography #birdsphotography #birdsofcanada #birdlovers #birdsofbc #owl #owlsofinstagram #barredowl #owlsarenotwhattheyseem #canada #canadabeauty @flow4nature

Nature’s surprise: A Barred Owl resting in the sakura bloom. And when I say resting I mean… well… watch to the end. “Who cooks for you?”: The Barred Owl’s call is famously described as sounding like, “Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you-all?” It’s a deep, hooting call that echoes well through forests. 📷 Nikon Z6 24-120 f:1/4 #birdlovers #wildlifephotography #nikon #nikonz6 #birding #your_best_birds #wildlifeplanet #wildanaloguezine #birdphotography #birdvideo #owl #barredowl #birdsofcanada #victoriabccanada🇨🇦#vanisland #vancouverislandbirds #onlyinvictoriabc

Beautiful canyon with an abandoned mountain resort ruins near Sooke, BC. #waterfall #waterfalls #djimini4pro #canada #canadabeauty #beautifulbritishcolumbia #abandonedcanada #abandonedbc #sooke #sookebc

Have you visited this abandoned resort ruins on Vancouver Island? Once a luxury getaway, this place has been left to nature for decades. The crumbling foundations, moss-covered walls, and eerie silence tell a story of its past. Once filled with guests enjoying ocean views and fine dining, now it’s a hidden piece of history, slowly disappearing into the forest. #curiocityvancouver #sooke #sookebc #deertrailresort

The beauty of Oregon coast #photooftheday #photography #beach #beachlife #beachvibes #oregoncoast #coastallife

Sandcut beach falls, cascading down to the Pacific Ocean beach is one of a lesser known Vancouver Island landmarks, but it is sooo worth visiting! Given all the fossils in those rocks, a way to pass beneath it or to get on top, it is one of the most excited waterfalls I’ve been to. #pnw #beautifulbritishcolumbia🇨🇦 #waterfallsofinstagram #waterfall #waterfalls #waterfallphotography #photooftheday #photography #beach #beachlife #beachvibes #canada #canadabeauty #sandcutbeach

Raw power of the PNW coast—waves crashing, nature roaring. #PNW #OceanVibes #photooftheday #photography #beach #beachlife #ocean #canada #canadabeauty #stormwatching #beautifulbritishcolumbia

PNW at its finest. It’s not just the view but the mindset of sitting on a beach and waiting for a low tide to pass by. #vancouverisland #pnw #ocean

Snow storm on the Pacific Coast is fairly rare but a magnificent event. It happens when the cool arctic air meets the pacific moisture. This morning in Victoria has been a bliss. I love it how you can see a light flow and a darker gloom above the sea and the snowy beach at the horizon. #pnw #vancouverisland #snowday #beautifulbritishcolumbia

This little hermit crab has a story to tell or at least a place to be. Fun fact: hermit crabs are not crabs. They are rather related to lobsters. And when they swap their shell, they make a line so if the new shell fits, the next in line gets to fit the old shell. #oceanlife
