I took a two-night camping trip to Nairn Falls Provincial Park just south of Pemberton, BC, on the last week before it closed for the season.

While I was there I did several loops of One Mile Lake, looking for wildlife and nature shots.

I chased this Pied-billed Grebe around for about an hour before I got this shot. It didn’t mind my presence, just kept hunting, diving and coming up, diving and coming up. . . until . . . success!

And a Belted Kingfisher diving and taking a fish at One Mile Lake.

Dang, these were the best shots I got, though a pair of them teased me several times .

If I got any closer, they’d skeedaddle, so these were taken with Big Bertha from a looong way away. . .

Can’t wait to give ’em another go some day!
