Dave Ellis is a wildlife photographer from Omemee. 

     Dave grew up in the Annapolis Valley, NS.  When he was younger he travelled and lived in places all across Canada and eventually settled down in Toronto. There he operated a small street vending handcraft business right downtown on Yonge Street. That was an education for a country boy! 

     He says the best move he and his wife Astrid ever made was when they moved to Omemee in 2001. With all of the lakes and rivers and nature areas here, it is a great place to be. They love it here and even more so since they took up wildlife photography as a hobby in 2016. The wildlife that is all around us here is quite phenomenal and they really enjoy being out in nature most days photographing it. 

     In 2018 Dave Ellis started writing a wildlife column with photos in the local newspapers, Kawartha Lakes This Week and Peterborough This Week. Now that those newspapers are no longer published, Dave’s column has moved into The Peterborough Examiner. 

     Dave Ellis enjoys sharing his photographs and the stories that go with them at presentations all around the Kawarthas.
