Holyrood

I hiked to the top of George Cove Mountain in Holyrood today, what a view!

Downtown Colours

Poinsettia

I bought Poinsettias for Christmas yesterday (I buy them every year) and of course I had to take some photos of them.

Christmas at The Rooms

I went to The Rooms today (art gallery & museum). They have all of their Christmas decorations out.

Windsor Lake

Windsor Lake is the city's water supply. I've never walked by it before (but have driven by it many times). Even though it was foggy and drizzly this morning I think the photos came out well.

Raisin Buns

No, not homemade, but store bought. Not as good as the ones my Mom used to make, but they'll do when I get a craving for them. See how they are floury and some of the raisins are burnt? Mom's would never be like that. The store calls them "tea biscuits" and I've heard lots of other people call them that too. But to me they will always be raisin buns and I have fond memories of watching Mom make them in the kitchen, cutting out the dough with a drinking glass, giving me, my brother and sister a small cup of raisins to eat while she made the buns.

Dogberries

Berries from the mountain ash tree, called dogberry trees around here.

Quidi Vidi Lake

Raindrops on Branches

....and whiskers on kittens. No, not quite, just raindrops on the bare branches of my maple trees on a rainy day.

A Horse, Of Course

Taken in Logy Bay this afternoon.

At My Window

I have a window bird feeder and regularly get goldfinches. Sometimes I will get chickadees, today I got both.
