With turquoise water, hot sand, and blue skies, what's not to love about Punta Cana? I took this shot waist deep in the water on our last day of vacation with my wife. This is a good memory of a great trip.
Nestled in the far southeast corner of our province, there is an odd coulee that contains these round red rocks that are scattered across the prairie landscape in dense clusters. They are called concretions and they are formed by softer sedimentary rock eroding away that surrounds the more dense rock formations. What is left after millions of years are these round rocks that are eroding and breaking apart themselves. This is a truly unique landscape in a rather mundane area that is filled with nothing but sagebrush.
While driving down a prairie back road in Southern Alberta, my daughter noticed this little Short-tailed Weasel running along the side of the road. After he spotted us, he took off and dove into the snow. After a short while we were able to find him again. He would pop his head up out of the snow from time to time to check on us. With us both standing at the side of the road as still as possible, he became more comfortable and hung around long enough for me to take a few shots before he took off into the snow again.
