It was a pretty chilly morning when I decided I needed a nature break, but nature was calling, so I bundled up and headed for Fort White Alive yesterday. You can see larger versions of these photos by clicking on them and scrolling through. I had almost finished the loop around, when I saw a… Continue reading A Winter Walk at Fort Whyte Alive

White-tail Deer on my Doorstep
A White-tail Deer and her 3 fawns have been on the area in front of my window for the last several days. The first pictures were taken from my window looking over a field just past the parking lot in July and August – up to yesterday. This morning, I found them on my doorstep. … Continue reading White-tail Deer on my Doorstep
A Little Walk
Yesterday, I had absolutely nothing scheduled except for laundry, so after the laundry was done, I went for a walk along the Seine River. I just brought my little camera that does’t have a lot of zoom, since it fits into my pocket. First thing I found was on a tree trunk just behind my… Continue reading A Little Walk
A Walk with the Deer
I am back house/dog sitting with my big buddy Toby. It was time to go for a morning walk and we were greeted by some White-tailed Deer just outside the yard. They gracefully trotted away and we continued on to the river and walked along the edge. A pair of Canada Geese were on the… Continue reading A Walk with the Deer
Adventures in House/Dog Sitting
Time is just flying by too fast and I haven’t had time to sit down and write anything here in much too long. This should have been posted about 3 weeks ago – but here it is. 🙂 Toby and I both managed to survive a few days together again when his family went away… Continue reading Adventures in House/Dog Sitting

I have to take advantage of the nice weather, and where better to go than Fort Whyte Alive in… Continue reading Nice Day for a Walk
Day 2 – Riding Mountain National Park – Oct 17
Today is my 2nd and last day in the park for this trip, so I was up before dawn to get breakfast at Tim Hortons next door to the motel. I noticed the moon when walking over there and decided to get a picture before leaving for the park. There had been frost overnight, so… Continue reading Day 2 – Riding Mountain National Park – Oct 17
Day 2 continued – Riding Mountain National Park Oct 17
When the Moose had moved on, I said good-bye to Anne and continued towards the Bison enclosure. I was looking at the beautiful fall colours as I entered and after going around a bend in the road, it was suddenly foggy. The tall grasses were interesting in the fog with the frost still on them… Continue reading Day 2 continued – Riding Mountain National Park Oct 17
A Breath of Fresh Air
We are in the midst of some very hot weather this week, but thankfully, it cools down beautifully at night. The early mornings are gorgeous. Due to the heat, most people have their air conditioners going full blast and last night we had 4 power outages – one after the other. Things would be coming… Continue reading A Breath of Fresh Air
Brisk Walk Along the Seine River
The moon was looking good when I went to bed last night – so I grabbed my camera to take a picture. I have to get back into the habit of early morning walks. This was as good a time as any to get out there and walk today. I just finished 3 weeks of… Continue reading Brisk Walk Along the Seine River
