Vulture, Holberg, BC, Canada
Not a Picky Eater

Species: Vulture | Location: Holberg, BC, Canada

About The Photographer

Cropped gopr0063 2
I do the majority of my work on the northern tip of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, focusing mostly on landscapes and wildlife, but also dabble in long daytime exposures and astrophotography. Main areas include Holberg, Winter Harbour, Port Hardy, Port McNeil, Port Alice, and much of the wilderness surrounding these communities.
