First Weekend of Spring

 Looking for Chipmunks

Waking up from hibernation the Chipmunks should be out in full force this weekend as the warm spring weather returns to Canada. Red Squirrels can be seen throughout the winter choosing to search for food rather than sleeping during the cold times. It is rare to get a Chipmunk picture in the snow seeing that they are hidden in their homes during the winter months only peeking out as soon as the warm weather arrives. This weekend should prove to be bountiful for rodent pictures as they should all be awake and running about with the warm temperatures that should be arriving this weekend. It is the some of the coldest days of March that we have been experiencing recently but the temperature should be above zero for this weekend ushering spring to the city of Ottawa.

Hoping the chipmunk hunting is fruitful this weekend wherever you may be during this wonderful spring weekend. And if not Chipmunks may you find some other delightful creatures to capture in photographs wherever you may be. All kinds of creatures should be waking up and shaking off this short winter we have had. So get out there this weekend and explore all the great experiences that nature has to offer you. If I am lucky I will be able to share some great images with you next week for I will be hunting for pictures this Sunday.
