Winter Fog
Click on the photo above for a bigger view of a winter fog rolling across frozen Canim Lake. Shot was taken at 8:30 am on January 14, 2009. A few minutes later, the fog completely shrouded the entire area.Snow, Snow,
& more Snow!
We have had a bit more than our normal share of snow so far this winter. Here's a shot of part of the property on Jan. 14/09...we're building some impressive snow piles!
This shot was taken at 8:40 am, just before the fog rolled in...see photo above.

Music (?) To
Their EarsWe've come across a "new" theory on how to warn the bears you're coming...it's called "singing". Yes, some people have had
success with singing while they're out for a walk in bear country. Apparently much better than whistling, singing lets the bears know you're there and there's no mistake
that you're a human and they then avoid you.
We neither confirm or deny this one...just thought it was interesting. Besides, singing a song is a pretty nice way to
go for an enjoyable walk in the woods. It's not clear to us if you have to be on key or not in order for this to be effective. We doubt that the bears are skilled music critics, but then again, who knows? |
