British Columbia
The photos in this gallery were taken in several places around British Columbia...from as far east as the Elizabeth Lake Sanctuary in Cranbrook, BC, as far west as the George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary http://www.reifelbirdsanctuary.com) in Ladner, near Vancouver on the mainland, Victoria on Vancouver Island, and as far north as Tumbler Ridge. Many of the images (particularly the hummingbirds) were made right here at home in Castlegar.

on May 17, 2010Thanks Ethan and Steve. Ethan, most of the hummers are shots taken on set up perches near my feeders. The Rufous males usually guard one or more feeders, and once they start doing that, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. These two were taken from a blind on my back deck...just had to wait for some interesting poses.
