He's Back

 

Frank the snowman finally came out just before Christmas and found no snow on the deck. He was actually enjoying a bit of warm sun on his old body. I think he is about 30 years old now. things changed the next day.

Foraging

 

Squirrels seem to spend all their days looking for food and this one was trying to snack on some Maple keys before the snow that was starting to come down got too heavy. It soon started to really snow a lot and squirrel left for home.

Frozen Pond

 

The pond in the Wychwood Park neighbourhood was frozen when I walked by recently on the way to a farmers market. I don't think this pond ever freezes well enough to allow skating or even walking on it.

January Theme: Photo Of The Year

The January theme for the City Daily Photo Blog community is 'Photo Of The Year'  and I chose this shot that I took in Merida Mexico of a dog  in an art gallery. I really liked the shot and the dog was so good to go back up the stairs after greeting everyone.

Happy New Year!
 

Safe From Thieves?

 

The police can leave their bikes anywhere with little chance of them being stolen I think. They are probably now stored away for winter but are a common sight the rest of the year.

Celebrate safely tonight! 

Golden Leaves

 

I stumbled upon a front garden that hadn't been raked and the leaves were still crisp and golden so of course a shot had to be taken. We have had snow and rain since then.

Sunset Or Sunrise?

 

It is hard to tell which way the sun is going in this one but it is beautiful either way. It looks as if a few people worked on this one judging by the signatures. There is no Monday Mural meme this week but here is a mural anyway.
