Like A Mirror

 

Earlier this summer this pond in Wychwood Park was covered in duckweed but as the weeds die back the reflections have appeared. As you can tell the pond is totally surrounded by trees.

Autumn Is Here

 

The Goldenrod is flowering which is a sure sign that the seasons are changing. This large patch was growing by a small creek and looked so lush that I had to stop for a pic.

Transit Signs

 

This collection of transit signs was found along the wall in the Wychwood barn which I showed you yesterday. These are major intersections in the city and it is likely that the signs were on display in those spaces. I love the graphic look of them.

A Fine Reuse

This is the interior of one of the old streetcar barns at the Wychwood Barns community centre and park. The barns were built as a streetcar maintenance facility in 1913 and have been converted into a multi-use space with theatres, artist studios, event spaces and more. This is barn 2 which is used as a space for a weekend farmers' market as well as various shows and even for wedding receptions. It is a great space with all of those skylights.

Happy

 

This happy face was spotted on a utility box outside of a public library which is a good spot for a cheerful child.

Careful Walking

 

This another shot of the fountain in Mirvish Village. It is activated by pressing a button over by that wall on the right. I can foresee lots of unsuspecting people getting wet while standing near the fountain when the sidewalk spurts up suddenly around them.

Keeping Warm

 

We had a cool morning a couple of weeks ago and I happened to be at the grocery store where there is a flock of about 20 pigeons who live around the parking lot. It was the first time I have ever seen them all down onto the asphalt trying to keep warm as it had been sunny earlier. There were pigeons hunkered down everywhere.
