Spring Yellow

 

The Daffodils are finally flowering and because we have been having rather cool weather they are lasting a while. This patch had some blue Scilla neighbours to enhance the colours.

Donuts!

 

The actor Ryan Reynolds has collaborated with Tim Hortons, Canada's most popular coffee and donut place, to bring out these delicious sounding donuts. There is some kind of charity contribution involved in the deal. There has been so much advertising that I have been tempted to try one but have so far resisted.

Impressive Entrance

 

There is a stretch of Avenue Rd south of St Clair St W which has a group of wonderful old apartment buildings built in the 1920s. I loved the entrance to this one. Apparently there is a mural on the ceiling of the lobby which was painted by one of the Group of Seven but it is hard to get in there. This building has heritage protection.

Busy Times

 

Spring is a busy time for beavers as they repair any winter damage to their lodges and start new construction so it was timely that I came upon this mural a couple of weeks ago. The artist for this one is Candypress.

You Never Know

 

You never know what can be at the end of a walkway like this. Well, this one leads to a building with a lot of studios. There are potters, painters, jewellers, and more, creating wonderful things. It is good such buildings are still around.

Hiding Treasures

Although most of our squirrels have black fur there are still many around with grey fur. When I first saw this one it was burying something so deep that his whole head disappeared into the hole. He then spent a lot of time filling in the hole and trying to make it look as if no earth had been disturbed. I wonder if he will remember where it was?

May Theme Day: Fruit

 

The May theme for the City Daily Photo Blog community is Fruit and since it is a bit early for our local fruit I chose this shot from the citrus aisle at a local grocery store. The bright orange seemed very spring-like to me.
