Pictures

After being on the road for 2 weeks we parked the trailer at Kathie's cousins place in Kitwanga for a couple of days. Her husband Barry offered to take me out into the swamps in his Argo (and 8 wheeled all terrain vehicle that floats) to take pictures of the animals in the swamp, bear, moose and beaver. It was a very wet day and we banged through the bush trails and had a great time but we didn't see any large animals. They were probably hiding from the rain.

We did see hawks and eagles.


And we stopped on a ridge above a swamp and the humming birds were flying all around us. Unfortunately as soon as I moved the camera to take a picture they flew away. I got lucky with the one below he did not see me move the camera.


In the picture below you can see the humming bird feeding but you can also see the rain falling.





The day after we drove around and took pictures of the more easily accessible areas. We did see some bear cubs that day.

Here is a picture of the church and bell tower in the Kitwanga Village.



I had a great time and look forward to going back into the swamp and getting that picture of a moose.
