Hello All, Was fortunate this past week to find a nesting pair of barred owls. The last few days have been spent shooting photographs and video. I was fortunate, and very lucky, to have the camera running when the male owl regurgitated a pellet. I have never witnessed this in the wild so was definitely a very cool moment. My guess is the chicks will be hatching in 3 to 4 weeks - can't wait to document it all. (watch in 1080p HD for best quality) Cheers, Justin -
Hello All, Put together a short video tonight showcasing some deer buck behaviours I have been privy to witness over three days this week. Mr. 10 and Mr. 9 are the main stars of the show, but long and skinny Mr. 8 also makes an appearance. Has been a fun first week documenting the rut with the camera. For best viewing, please watch in 1080p HD (circular icon at bottom right under viewing screen). Enjoy...

Hello All, With the rut in full swing, I have been visiting my favourite deer spots to photograph and videotape the bucks. Was cool to find the same 10-point buck yesterday that I filmed a year ago. This time he is approximately 1 km to the east and across a busy road. Funny enough, a big 9-pointer has moved into his old stomping ground. Filmed this clip of Mr. 10 trashing the heck out of a fallen tree, leaving his scent and marking his territory with some aggressive rubs. Was cool to watch this from less than 25 feet away. To view in best quality and HD, click on 1080p HD (small circle at right hand side under viewing screen.) Enjoy!

Hello All, Has been a fun summer/early fall with the camera. Was lucky to find my first spruce grouse the other week while searching for moose in Algonquin Park. Very cool birds. Have also been spending a lot of time at my deer spots here in Ottawa, shooting both still images and film of whitetail behaviour, etc. The bucks are beginning to show themselves, so the real fun is just beginning. Here are two short videos for those that enjoy nature and wildlife.

Video: Hot Slop-Edge Largie Action (Rideau River)
JustinHoffman posted a topic in General Discussion
Hello All, The fishing on the Rideau River has been hot the last couple of days - in sharp contrast to the lacklustre action the previous weeks, smack in the middle of never-ending fronts. This is a short video I filmed on Monday. The largies were stacked on a mid-river wind-swept slop edge. Water depth was approximately 3 to 4 feet and flipping jigs accounted for all fish.
