Lunchtime

 

This shot was taken last week before we got 60 cm (2 ft) of snow.  It was cold and these little House Sparrows were gobbling up all the seeds that they could find.

Astonished

 

Every time that I see one of these vehicles I can't believe my eyes. And lately I have seen a couple in really bright colours which just increases the effect.

The Patio is Closed

 

This shot was taken before our last big dump of snow. I fear to think what this might look like now. Hoping for an early spring!

A Nice Tribute

 

It was good to see this sign installed by Heritage Toronto in the Annex out front of one of the apartment buildings that Uno Prii had designed. He designed over 250 buildings around the world with many of them in the Annex neighbourhood. You can click the Uno Prii label below to see some that I have posted in the past.

Summer Flowers

 

It is nice to think about summer flowers and the visits they got from Hummingbirds when we are now having really cold weather. Not the best conditions for getting out for new pics! These Cosmos were out on the deck where Frank the snowman now rules.

Mural

 

This large mural was spotted on the side of an alternative school along Bloor St W. It commemorates the signing of a treaty between groups of indigenous peoples many years ago. The list of artists is on the left side.

A Snowman?

 

This guy does not look happy about the snow on his nose. Spotted in the front garden of an Annex neighbourhood home.
