I couldn't resist taking a pic of this Magnolia tree with its deep pink blooms. And as a bonus there was a small Bleeding Hearts plant growing beneath it. Lovely springtime.
Occasional Toronto
And other things that I like!

Sweet Kittty
The neighbourhood cat is still wearing her colourful collar which I think warns the birds that she is about. She loves to greet people but as soon as I pull out the camera she won't look at me.

Streetcar Art
When the streetcar line along St Clair was updated, artists were commissioned to design art for the top edge of each stop. This one called "Scenic Routes" by artist Carlo Cesta was installed at the stop near Avenue Rd. It is said to resemble vines growing along the top. I like it.

"Reclining Figure"
This bronze sculpture titled Reclining Figure by artist John Fillion was installed in front of an office tower on St Clair Ave W in 1967 and continues to be one of my favourite sculptures in the city. It is so powerful.

Muscle Car
I went by the hand car wash place again and saw this shiny Corvette out front. Pretty impressive but I still like the old ones better.

Morning Glory
I love Morning Glories so was pleased to come upon this beautifully painted utility box. Even with all the shadows from trees it was a stand out. The artist for this one is K Roberts.
