The Friendly Beasts

The Gifts of the Magi

Festive Table

I had my nephew and his girlfriend over for supper tonight so I decided to use my Christmas dishes and make everything festive looking.

Downtown

Some colourful shots from downtown on a cold day.

West and East

2 photos taken within minutes of each other this afternoon, one looking west, the other looking east.

Snow!

It snowed this morning so I went out to take pictures of it before the rain started.

Clouds Over Windsor Lake

His Favourite Book

The Tree is Up

I decorated one tree today, I have another one to do tomorrow. Here are a couple of quick shots of some of the ornaments.

Decorating for Christmas

I started Christmas decorating today. I love unpacking all of my decorations and of course photographing them.

Cabot Tower, Signal Hill

Kent's Pond

November Collage

Hawk

This hawk was in the back garden this afternoon. It looks like a Sharp Shinned Hawk, probably a young one.

Christmas is Coming

These gifts were wrapped by my sister, she always does such a beautiful job.

Northern Flicker

A Flicker on the feeder this morning.

Quidi Vidi in Fog

Alstroemeria

Cape Spear

It was sunny but cold today, but with rain in the forecast for the rest of the week I wanted to get out and get some pictures. I went to Cape Spear and had fun photographing the old lighthouse reflected in a small puddle.

Kent's Pond

Kent's Pond was calm this morning, it was cool but sunny.

St. John's Harbour

No rain today, hopefully next week will be clear and dry.

In the Fog

In between torrential rain showers I managed to get out and take a few pictures at Quidi Vidi Lake.

Blackhead

The sun came out for a couple of hours this afternoon so I went to Blackhead to take some photos.

Evening

It's been raining all week so I haven't had a chance to get out and take any photos. This is from my living room. Oh, and the answers to those mystery macros a couple of days ago are wood, coral growing on a shell, mussel shell, sea urchin, glass "friendship ball"
