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.

And other things that I like!

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.

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.
