Photo-Finish Friday--Wetland Edition

The wetlands are alive with new growth. This is taken along the edge of a lake. The plant on the left, with the segmented look, is horsetail.

Gratitude Monday - Still Fuzzy

One of more than 20 different types of willow in the province.


We went for a drive yesterday. That alone is something to be grateful for as it was a nice late fall day and good for driving.
It was good to get out of the house, too, as I hadn't ventured around much locally in the past few months. It was good to see the farms, and the wetland such as they are these days, and to see the mountains rise against the edge of the forest again.
Along with a few cows and some small birds we saw a very large cat, probably a housecat gone wild, hunt for food, and we saw a coyote. It was a good day.
We also saw some pussy willows in full fuzz and I made sure to get pictures.
Stepping outside has many rewards and I am grateful for each of them.
