On this page I post some of my favourite memories or photos and try to update a few times a year so be sure to check back regularly.
For artists and others wishing to use or duplicate my photos for their own profit: please email me at georgianbaybeauties@hotmail.com. If your work is for a local Georgian Bay charity, I am very happy to collaborate!
Summer 2026:
The Snapping Turtles of Georgian Bay have such incredible personalities! Those of you who have ever sat on the edge of a dock talking to one as they soak up the sun in the water beside you will understand! Yes, I’m one of those and when I visit our family cottage it is the fellow in my videos below that I look for.
Many turtles remain in the same geographic area year after year so can feel like a part of the family. This guy has been visiting our dock for over a quarter century and I like to think that over the years we have developed a bit of a friendship!
One thing I must note is that it is never ok to feed the wildlife, this can cause them severe issues and interrupt their natural ability to hunt. For animals like turtles, snake and bear it can cause them to become aggressive and seek out humans for more food.
