Spring Comes Early


I took these pictures on Sunday at a nature area in south Kitchener.  Those clouds are called Mare's Tails.




There's been a lot of beaver activity this year--these trees have been coated with something to stop the beavers from chewing them more.


I love the reflection of the trees on the water.



They're hard to see, but there are about 5 turtles sunning themselves on this log.  There are many indigenous red-eared sliders in this area--Speedy and Zippy were red-eared sliders.

More Cute Faces


Here's my eldest niece pretending she doesn't want me to take her picture.



This is my step-father's dog, Neo.  He looks like a stuffed animal, not a real dog.



My beautiful sister-in-law and my youngest niece.  At least one of them needs a nap :)

Beautiful

I got to spend the day with my nieces yesterday, a spectacularly beautiful spring day full of sunshine and warmth.  More to follow, but just these for now...

Desperately Seeking Spring

I'm making up for not posting recently by offering you a plethora of images I took with Katie today on our second field trip.  This time we were wandering along a walking trail in St. Jacob's looking for signs of spring.
