I thought it would be fun to post three photos from Churchill…one wildlife image from air, land and sea. Churchill’s diversity is immense from season to season and you quite honestly never know what you will experience from trip to trip. It’s always an amazing wildlife adventure in Churchill’s untamed frontier!

Natural Habitat Adventures guide Brad Joseph too this magnificent polar photo in the Churchill Wildlife Management Area last polar bear season. The ability to capture the detail in an image that is predominately white takes years of practice and experimenting with technical skill. Enjoy the image!

These Churchill Photos of the week are by Rhonda Reid and one by Stephanie Fernandez. Over 200 species of migrating birds come to Churchill during this time to take advantage of the bountiful feeding grounds. Only about 10 overwinter in Churchill. Look for postings from our local photographers and Churchill Arctic summer guides….much more to come!

This detailed photograph of a Churchill husky appears as a painting. The gray, black and white hairs blend together to form the tight knit coverage for the climate. Sled dogs in Churchill are hearty and strong and can endure frigid cold weather in winter. They are born to run!
