This is the last section of the mural on Lawrence Ave that I have been showing for the last several weeks. The artists Shalak, Smoky & Fiya did such a wonderful job on it even though it was hard to interpret some of the sections. I think there is one bit that I missed so I will have to go back on a nice day to catch it!

I took this shot on one of our rare days with snow on the ground this winter. It was all gone the next day but it certainly made a nice surrounding for the Blythwood Road Baptist Church. It was built in 1956 and is a heritage property since its whole neighborhood has been deemed a heritage area.

The Eastern Grey Squirrel comes in two colours - grey like this one and black like most of the squirrels I have shown you before. They are the same species and even within one litter there can be a mixture of colours. In Toronto it seems that the black ones outnumber the grey but that is just my personal observation.

This is one of two lions who guard the entrance to a lovely garden at the Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre but I have the feeling that he is a lot happier in summer than he was last week in the snow!
I showed you a section of this gatehouse previously (HERE) and when we got a bit of snow last week I decided it was time for a pic of the whole thing. Although its setting was originally rural only the width of the sidewalk separates it from the very busy Bayview ave now.

I spotted this food truck while it was loading up on propane for a day of work! I like the cityscape on its side. There are so many different food trucks around these days.

In 2000 Toronto had a "Moose In the City" event where over 300 moose were painted by artists and were placed around the city. They all had antlers which tended to disappear within days unless the moose was in a secure location. You can still spot some of the moose around town. This one is located outside St Clement's School, an Anglican private school for girls in mid-town. This moose is even painted to look as if she is wearing the school uniform!
