Cover Artist
Wilf SchurigWilf Schurig becameintrigued with naturalhistory at an early age.As a young naturalist, hisdesire to document whathe had seen led to aninterest in photography.It was a fitting outletrequiring, at times, acombination of intensewildlife observation,technical skill, creativity and emotion. In pursuitof a perfect shot, Wilf feels, while patiencecertainly is an asset, a deep interest in thebehavior of his chosen subjects advances the"luck factor"considerably. Over many decades hiswork has appeared on television, and in maga-zines, calendars and books in Canada and abroad.www.wilfschurig.comschurigm@telus.net ; (403) 938-4780
