I wouldn't let the neighbour's cat go on the table when I was having lunch today. Later on I saw that he was enjoying the table by himself!

Day 189
Another favourite flower - this one is a Raspberry Ripple Geranium that I have had for a few years (I bring it in for the winter).
It is one plant with different colour flowers.

Another favourite flower - Night Scented Stocks, they only open at night, but have the most incredible fragrance!

Day 181
We started a landscaping project today (this is the 'before', hopefully the 'after' will be at the end of the week!).

Day 180
We went to the local zoo today.
The reason for going was that a new exhibit opened recently - 'Journey to Churchill' (a city in the northern part of our province, in the Arctic).
This Arctic Fox seemed to be just trying to find a way to escape (the wolves already dug into the Polar Bear exhibit!).
We only saw one Polar Bear (there are three altogether). The new exhibit has beautiful, large pools of water, with tunnels for people to walk through, and we were hoping to see the Polar Bears swimming, hopefully next time (here is link for a news site with videos).
A close view (he was waiting for a treat).
Musk Ox on the hill.
This seal was swimming upside down in one of the pools. There were originally with the polar bears, but were scared of them!
Of course there were lots of Canada geese around.
Lots more animals in other parts of the zoo -
 |
| a sloth |
 |
| box of snakes |
 |
| bison, with an unusual white bison |
This cougar was stalking a young child.
It was a lovely way to spend the morning with my family!

Day 178
A thunderstorm whipped through this evening.
It started with a bit of hail (rare for us).

Day 173
A pair of American Goldfinches.
(It was pouring rain outside and the window was dripping with water, so not the best picture.)

Day 172
My son got a good deal on a 'fixer-up' bike, and after a lot of work he was finally able to get it running to try it out this evening.
❤Joanne
Day 170
Finished hand spun yarn (silk and merino from New Zealand!).
I want to try making a true moebius cowl (similar to this).
