Whistler Animals Galore - WAG

Yesterday was my first volunteer photography session at Whistler Animals Galore (WAG)! Happily, as it was a weekend, hubby was available to help me - I'm so grateful for that!

We were thrown in the deep end, too - three cats, two dogs, and seven (yes!) eight-week-old puppies! It felt like a bit of a gong show, being at a new location, with new people, and the animals working with people they'd never met, or even got the scent of, before! Happily, I was able to get a handful of decent shots of almost everyone.

Here are a couple of my fav's (as always, click to enlarge):

Akela

Moose

Fischer

At some point, I'll take some photos of the facility at WAG ... talk about comfy ... eg: heated floors in the cattery! Whoa!

Good To Be Back In Pemberton - Home!

We've been back in Pemberton over 3 weeks already ... it feels like just yesterday that we arrived!

In amongst it all, I've been happy to have the opportunity to take my camera out for a couple of getting-to-know-you-again sessions in the valley!

All together now: Click image to enlarge photograph!

First was a drive down the Meadows Road, to the end of the tarmac and several k's down the dirt track:





Then a walk to One Mile Lake, where we discovered new boardwalks and better access:






Mini-hike with family to Nairn Falls - chilly but well worth it:






















And a few other miscellaneous scenes ...






It is SO good to be back!
