The Beautiful Turkey Vulture is Crucial to our Ecosystem

Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 16, 2019Leave a comment

Yeah, that’s right, I said beautiful. I was one too, who used to think that the turkey vulture was ugly. Well that was until I started to go to bird and wildlife rescue, recovery and rehabilitation centres more regularly, which began a couple years ago. There are a few on Vancouver Island and I love…

Be Grateful for the Moment You Are In Because Moments Never Happen Again

Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 14, 2019Leave a comment

Oooops. I missed a couple days already, of my “blog every day” commitment to myself. I applaud those bloggers and vloggers out there who have been writing and posting daily for years on end, as it isn’t easy for me to remember to do it every single day … yet. Every day I would think…

The Great Blue Heron on Vancouver Island

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 11, 20192 Comments

I never intended to become a birder, it just kind of happened, and now I cannot get enough of it. I still would not call myself a birder; just one photographer who loves to be in the presence of birds as often as possible. I have been learning a ton and having so much fun.…

Barred Owls on Denman Island

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 9, 20194 Comments

All of a suddenly out of nowhere, without warning, she swooped down right in front of the feet of one of my friends and grabbed a vole and flew off into the back forest to feed her owlet.

RAIN Dancing on Horsetails

Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaJuly 8, 2019Leave a comment

The best time to make photos, if you don’t want any company, and to find peace and solitude, is to go out in the rain into the forest with camera. Why is nobody else in there in the rain? The colours are so vibrant, the multitude of greens so lush, the scents and smells of…

Families of Bald Eagles Hunting on Vancouver Island

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaMay 29, 2019Leave a comment

The bald eagle is my very favourite bird, as I have written on this blog before. Imagine my thrill when I came upon not just one or two eagles, but I found many families of bald eagles together, all of different ages and in different stages of development, lined up together along the shoreline, hunting…

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaMarch 19, 20182 Comments

I feel very fortunate to be able to witness some amazing wildlife and birds on Vancouver Island and on the Gulf Islands. As one who is new to birding, I am thoroughly enjoying the challenge of making images on location, of these majestic birds; the great blue heron. (ardea herodias fannini) Their wingspan, as you…

Birds As Spiritual Relationships

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaMarch 16, 2018Leave a comment

Especially during this time of year, I try to visit a pond daily if I can. When all goes well, I shall have lots more bird photos coming up over the next month or two with Spring on the way. I love the relationship between duck and I. There is no such thing as “that’s…

Learning Bird Photography

Birding, Nature, PhotographyBy brendajohimaMarch 16, 2018Leave a comment

I try to visit a pond daily, especially this time of year. Lots more bird photos will be coming up over the next month or two with Spring on the way. I’ve only started seriously learning about photographing birds over the last few months and I am thoroughly enjoying the peace, serenity and beauty of…
