On February 26, 2007, I went for a drive to see some wildlife out at Lac De Bois Grassland Park and I was lucky enough to see this redheaded woodpecker. He was pecking holes in this hydro pole. I was able to get quite close to him and he didn't seem to mind me taking his picture. I've seen a couple of redheaded woodpeckers in my lifetime. One was when I was living in Sharbot Lake, Ontario and another one that I saw was while I was camping at Paul Lake Provincial Park last year. This is the closest I have ever been able to get to one.

Mountain Sheep
On February 26, 2007, I went for a drive to see some wildlife out at Lac De Bois Grassland Park. There was a herd of mountain sheep in this field. It looks like they were enjoying themselves grazing. It was warm in the city of Kamloops, but up in Lac De Bois Grassland Park, it was pretty cold. The cold weather didn't seem to bother them.
Hawk
On February 26, 2007, I went for a drive to see some wildlife out at Lac De Bois Grassland Park. I saw this hawk sitting on top of this hydro pole. The wind ruffled some of his feathers on his chest. He was very pretty just sitting there.
