We met with some great friends from Montreal and chose Montebello as a meeting please as it was basically half way for each of us to meet up. We had a nice lunch and then walked into Manor Papineau. Our friends had never been to the Chateau Montebello before so we had a nice wee walk on the grounds and in the main lobby.
The Lilac Tree in our back yard is in full bloom. Hear are a couple of my favourites.
We travelled to Mount Albert Ontario to visit with my Aunt and Uncle. They back on to a forest and they had lots of birds drop by. Here are a few. Downy Woodpeckers and American Golden Finch
We travelled to Bath, Ontario for my Aunts internment. It was a somber day for a somber occasion. Since we were so close to Napanee, we couldn’t resist a quick visit to see the Falls and Train Bridge there.
Went for a walk at lunch today and the birds were really chirping away. Sometimes the small things like bird song just makes your day.
Been finding it hard to get out of the house, so have been watching the back yard to see who is visiting us. Here is a little selection of our back yard friends
We had a very bad freezing rain storm and power is still out all over the city 24 hours later. I didn’t venture to far from the house (I really don’t need to fall (ever again)). These pictures are from just around the house.
The weather was “warmish” today, so I took my camera out for a walk. This was it’s first outing since the Snow Bears. I was astounded to hear all the bird song and see how many birds and animals were out today. The Robins were very busy looking for food and they were able to find some. Hope you enjoy my photos of the first signs of Spring.
A few shots from the street after our latest dump of snow. We are starting to run out of places to put it. Thankfully another month or so and it should be significantly reduced or maybe even gone.
Today we took a 2.5 km walk in Ottawa’s west end to see the Snow Bears. What a fun outing it was. The trail was flat and well packed. I am very please to have been able to get out and see these little guys. I wanted to do it last winter but was just not up to it. Great progress!
