Here is a curious caribou on the tundra along the Hudson Bay coast in Polar Bear Provincial Park, Ontario. This is at the treeline and the short spindly black spruce in the background can be hundreds of years old. A sensitive and precious ecosystem and the place I think about when I’m daydreaming. From August 2019.
