On Sunday, we all went to the Yukon Wildlife Preserve, where we spent the morning taking photos. I snapped this picture of neatly aligned deer butts seconds after their keeper gave them food. Feeding time is exciting …

Annoyed and tired after three weekends in a row of hunting with no success, we ended the second-last day in our favorite hunting spot. Before we left that evening, my dad decided to release a moose call. It was a lengthy call so I jokingly asked my dad if he said anything to the moose. …
Living With Wildlife: Simon Blakesley
My name is Simon Blakesley, and I am a photographer living in Whitehorse. I’ve submitted a photo from June 2014 showing the parent eagle flying with the juvenile. It looks like some level of training or moral support is being transmitted between the two birds as they fly together. The shot was taken in the …

These photos were taken on Dec. 8 around 1 p.m. near the Takhini campground. This otter and his pals were in the Kusawa River where the river was trying to freeze up and the rim of the ice meets the open water. The otters were probably fishing, but were very playful and were clearly interested …

This gorgeous caterpillar was enjoying the fireweed growing out of the deck in August. I saw one more like it in October while cleaning up the garden, but otherwise have never seen its match in size or colour north of 60. I would love to know what it has become, if there are any larvae experts in the …

I went out to clean and refill the birdbath in our backyard and found this little fella perched on the rim, sound asleep. I was able to get within 12 inches of him. When the bird awoke, he looked right at me for several seconds, giving me time to grab this second shot before flying …

This is a lynx skull, found by my boyfriend’s dog. We were out at Hunker Creek, just outside of Dawson City, last summer. A few friends and I were building a stage for a music event we put on, and the dog, Frett, wandered off and came back playing with the skull. I was fascinated …

I took this shot near the Yukon-B.C. border last summer as I was heading south on a road trip. The little guy came right up and said hello as we were pulling onto the highway — I assume it was at least somewhat domesticated, but it was still really wonderful to see.I shot it with …

I took the baby robins nesting in on of our spruce trees in our Christmas Tree Farm. Mommy robin was high above me in a poplar tree chirping and watching very carefully. I was very respectful of the little darlings and shot the photo quickly using a Nikon D90 at F5.6, 1/20 sec, ISO 400, and a 55 …

I ’m from Hungary and have been living in the Yukon for three years. I has never seen a caribou before. Even when I was at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve, they were far away, so I couldn’t see them. Finally, on a sunny Sunday, a group of caribou was grazing on the side of the road. …

Disclosure: I’m not a Yukoner, just passing through, but saw the note in the March 20th issue (I’m staying at the Beez Kneez Bakpakers hostel that was mentioned in the issue about retired Quest dogs, one of whom, Bertha, is lying on the floor next to me as I type this!) and thought of a photo I …

It was a cloudy afternoon in late August at approximately 2 p.m. when my husband called me to come to our bedroom. Through the bedroom window I was shocked to see this beautiful owl perched on the ledge of our deck. He stayed there for approximately 15 minutes looking into our greenbelt and back to …

This rather scrawny-looking fox joined me when I was walking in the woods above the dam on July 10th. He/she had given a blood curdling yelp (as foxes do) and came out on to the path just in front of me. It was small and young looking – its tail was not very long but …

This is a moose hunt from 2010 with my daughter Jenna, which we took at McQuesten Lake near Keno. It was Jenna’s first moose hunt. It took us two days to finally see a bull. Shore lunches and lots of calling, which she did lots of. It paid off. Jenna was actually the first to …

While returning from Skagway I saw two black bears in the bush having lunch on some plants. They were enjoying themselves until my dogs, which were in the van with me, got a whiff of them and started barking. Once they heard the noise, the bears headed into the forest. This photo was taken with …

I observed this mama robin and her youngster over a period of about three days. The young one was lagging behind in development and wasn’t able to fly any distance and definitely not to any height. The mama robin was very patient and protective, even feeding the young one, and I got this lucky shot. It …
