The End of the Season

It is now November and the last of the trees are raining leaves.   We have come to the end of the fall season and winter is coming our way.   On a Sunday drive recently I captured a pond surrounded with beautiful fall colour.   I am sharing this view on Watery Wednesday and Outdoor Wednesday.


Have a great day.   Valerie

A Stormy Beach for Watery Wednesday

 

The day that my husband and I pulled into Agawa Bay campground in Lake Superior Provincial Park was very windy and on the cool side.   After setting up our campsite we took a walk down to the beach.  The waves were high and the plumes splashing up on the rocks went way into the air.

The campsites that were right on the beach were completely windblown.  They were having to tie extra ropes to the few trees to keep everything from blowing away.  The next morning the wind had died down and the lake looked fairly placid again.

Sand River Falls for Watery Wednesday

This photo was taken during our summer vacation earlier this month.   Sand River is one of the beautiful rivers in Lake Superior Provincial Park.    I love water falls and this one was very pretty.

Along Lake Drive for Water Wednesday

It was a warm day on Sunday.  My husband and I decided to just take a little drive to Lake Simcoe.  It is not far from here.  It was packed with boaters and bathers and picnicers.  Every beach was filled.  Our favourite part is the drive along Lake Drive.  There is little cottages and huge homes along the way.   It is very pricey to purchase a piece of real estate now on this lake.  So, we just gawk.  We stopped at several docks and took some pictures.   This one shows that all means of craft were out on the water that day.  Many of them take the boat out and anchor it for the day while they dive off the boat and generally enjoy themselves.   Do I sound envious.  Well maybe a little.    Have a great day.

Reflections in the Pond for Watery Wednesday

My husband and I have been sitting out by the pond in the evening.  One particular evening I liked the way the plants were reflected in the water and snapped a picture.   For more watery wonders visit HERE.   Valerie

Forest pond on Watery Wednesday

I took this shot last weekend of a pond in the Koffler Scientific Reserve in York Region. I loved the reflection of the trees in the water. For more wonderful watery photos visit here.

Down at the Pond

The American Robin is nesting at the side of our house.   Here he is down at our pond getting his mud wet to make a solid home for the new babies.   More watery wonders can be found at Watery Wednesday.

That's A Lot of Water

Every spring the banks of the Holland River overflow and some backyards get flooded.  For more Watery Wednesday photos go to  http://waterywednesday.blogspot.com/

Pond thaw

Oh it is so spring like outside today.  It shows 20C on the deck. I sat in the sun and read a book. The bubbler in the pond is doing its thing out there today. There is a good size hole in the ice.  This thaw may be temporary but it is a sign that the worst is over and spring will arrive soon.   For more Watery Wednesday photos visit http://waterywednesday.blogspot.com/
