Queen's Battery, Signal Hill

It was a warm but windy day today. This afternoon I walked to the Queen's Battery on Signal Hill. Here are a few photos.

Busy Harbour

I spent a few hours at Joe's office this afternoon and there was lots to see out the window.

St. Philip's Cemetery

I walked around the old cemetery and church in St. Philip's today.

Foggy Quidi Vidi

Foggy Lake

Quidi Vidi Lake this morning in the fog. Since we have a lot of fog around here I thought I may as well photograph it!

Pretty Purple Posies

Downtown

A few photos from downtown today.

Robin Redbreast

There were 4 robins in my back garden today. I hope they found a warm place because it snowed this evening!

Downtown School

A school downtown. It was sunny today but chilly (only about 5ºC).

Signs of Spring

Crosuses from Bannerman Park, Coltsfoot near Long Pond (Coltsfoot is the first wildflower to bloom around here) and a Great Egret in Long Pond. They are rare birds in Newfoundland.

Miniature City

I took apart an old computer today, most of it is going in the garbage but I saved some of the obsolete parts for photo props. They look like tiny cities.

Baby Icebergs

Well, not really, just some ice in the bay. We drove to Holyrood today and saw this ice. Some people call them "bergy bits" or "growlers". Baby icebergs sounds cuter.

More Ice and Glitter

We drove to Flatrock and Pouch Cove today. The ice is in the bays out there and there is still a lot of glitter on the trees.
