Busy As A .....!

This bee was certainly living up to its reputation as it went from flower to flower gathering nectar. It has been hot here the last week and for the first time ever I have seen bees going to the birdbath for a drink of water. It surprised me but it makes sense.

Meow!

While walking through the Annex neighbourhood I spotted this cat out of the corner of my eye. At first I thought it was a real cat until I turned around and realized that it was metallic. The homeowners must be cat lovers don't you think?

They're Back!

 The tourists seem to be trickling back into the city. This is a shot of the stairs leading up to Casa Loma which for the last 18 months have been fairly empty. At this point they have walked up about 90 steps and have about 15 more to go so it is a good place to stop and read the signs.

A Red Beauty

I spotted this red beauty  in a mechanic's lot and stopped for a shot immediately. It is a Ford Country Sedan, I think a 1957 but I could be wrong about the year. I love that it even has white wall tires! 

I think the name plate on the car counts as a sign so am taking part in Signs 2. Click HERE to see more signs from around the world.

Guardians Of The House

During one of my wanderings I spotted these two ferocious creatures guarding the entrance to a home. They are sure to fend off any evil coming towards them!

Not Alone

There seem to be a lot of these "You Are Not Alone" murals around town. I spotted this one a while ago but there was always a vehicle parked in front of it. It is nice to know that there is someone looking out for us and we are not alone.

Water Lilies

I had no luck seeing frogs on the Water Lillies at James Gardens this week and the same story unfolded when I went by the shop window in Koreatown to see the pop-up cards. They still look so lovely and there seems to be new ones every time that I go by.
