This month's calendar features an adult mule deer buck with its antlers in full velvet in the forests of Yellowstone National Park. He was enjoying a snack on the side of the trail and other than a short glance in our direction he hardly bothered to notice that we were there.
This month's calendar features the delicate blossoms of a flowering apple tree in spring. All the flowering trees exploded into full bloom over the last couple of weeks and it was an amazing sight to see! The only sad part is that they only last a couple of weeks so it's really important to get out and enjoy them while they last...
This month's calendar features a White-tailed Jackrabbit in a city park in SE Calgary. These rabbits started changing from their winter white fur into their summer brown colours several weeks ago, which was well before the snow melted! This is always a great sign of spring around here, only they went way too early this year with the extended winter that we had. Now that spring has arrived in full force I'm sure they are much more comfortable in their brown fur!
This month's calendar image features a beautiful White-tailed Jackrabbit in its spring colors. These rabbits (hares technically) live all over Calgary and this year they are thriving in our neighborhood. They have always been here but lately there are so many of them that we typically see half a dozen or more on our daily walks.
