HAPPY CANADA DAY!!

We just returned from a road trip, got to see a bit of Canada out west. Lots of mountains

The road led through this rocky cut. Note the rain on the windshield. Yes, we travelled in a convertible, but couldn’t put the top down most of the time because it rained, poured, hailed, showered, sprinkled, pretty well the whole way. 🙂
The rivers and streams we passed were swelling up to the top of their bank, like this one. Flood warnings out everywhere. The snow pack in the mountains was said to be twice as deep as usual, and because of the late spring, it hadn’t melted yet.

No, this is not smoke, that was last year (sigh). It’s fog, so dense you can barely see the mountain behind. It was a great trip. We saw friends, family and met new ones. Aren’t we lucky? Let’s take good care of this place.

Eagles chapter two

The eagles have been very busy. They have continued to increase the size of the nest until we could no longer tell if Mama was sitting on the eggs, if there were eggs. Here’s what it looks like now, nearly twice the size as it was in March when I last posted, cascading down the tree, hooked on 3 or 4 branches now.

My husband and I were standing on the driveway talking when an eagle flew low overhead and landed behind a high rock. Eagles don’t do that as a rule, they stick to the trees unless they’re after something. A minute later, it flew off with something in it’s claws, went to the nest briefly, then darted into the nearest tree. Here it is resting in the tree.

We climbed up to see what he was after, and found a large clump of moss torn up. He must have placed the moss in the nest as a cushion for the eggs. Does that mean the eggs are yet to be laid? We don’t know. Wish I had a mirror fixed in the tree that would show me what’s in the nest. 🙂

What do you think is going on? Drop me a comment.

More Signs of Spring

Here we are mid-April. It must be almost spring, right?

The current bush, my absolute favourite is out in bloom. The original bush died and I shopped everywhere for a replacement. Then one just sprouted up in my garden down the bank from the old one. Warmed my heart.
The camellias are among the first to bloom. Love the different shades.
I love the dandelions. They are so bright and cheerful in the spring. And you can always make a dandelion chain. 🙂
The cherry trees are in full blossom. This is three trees planted together. Lovely. This is an ornamental, of course. The fruit trees are still thinking about sending out their blossoms.
And then there’s is the western skunk cabbage. Grows in ditches and wetlands, and stinks up the place. 🙂

Yet, we had an inch and a half of snow on Sunday, and another flurry on Tuesday. Doesn’t the weatherman know it’s SPRING??

What is happening where you live? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Best, Sylvie
