Evening Sky at Skywatch Friday

The other night our group of Naturalists met for a hike in the Koffler Scientific Reserve in York Region as it was the last meeting till start up again in September.  It was a lovely night but the clouds were promising rain.  I took this shot from a location up on a hill looking out to the  Niagara escarpment in the distance.  The Koffler Reserve is on the Oak Ridges Moraine so lots of hills and dales to cover..   Look for more interesting skies on Skywatch Friday here.
Have a great weekend.  Valerie

A View of Contrasts-Skywatch Friday

We have had a very hot week her in souther Ontario breaking all the records for highs.  We are not complaining but it is unusual to have this hot at this time of the year.   I took this photo this afternoon on my way home from the gym.  I just like the dark green foliage with the blue sky and fluffy white clouds.   More great sky photos can be found here.
 For our American friends I hope that you enjoy your Memorial Day weekend and that is just as spectacular as Victoria Day weekend that Canadian had last weekend.   

Blogger is not putting my pictures where I want them again. Grrrr!

It Was a Rainy Day-SkyWatch

Last Saturday I was participating in a plant sale in Markham Ontario. Thankfully the plant sale was indoors but as I looked out the window I noticed the Canada Geese hunkered down under the trees out of the rain. See more SkyWatch photos here.

A Stormy Sky- Sky Watch

Here in the Sandbox we went from a very dry few weeks to a windy and wetter week this week.  We really did need it.  I caught the stormy sky to show you.   Join more of us Sky Watchers at Skywatch Friday and see what the sky looks like all over the world.
