….Tonguely is trying to portray a more angelic look

Has Tonguely turned a new ‘lily pad’ or is he the same Tonguely that we witnessed last week? Someone suggested that he may be the Eddie Haskel of frogs….turning on the charm to impress the parents. What do you make of his new look?

Waterfalls in Hamilton – Water, Water Everywhere #65

….thanks to Jez for hosting Water, Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2021/02/22/snowy-branches-water-water-everywhere-65/

Yesterday Kevin and I drove to Hamilton, ON, to hike around an area known for its waterfalls. Unfortunately it was very icy so the hiking part was cut short but not before we were able to see two of the area’s famous waterfalls. The first one is Webster’s Falls. It is probably the more spectacular of the two because it is bigger and more water falls over the edge of the cliffs. Tews Falls has less water but the view along the gorge is spectacular.

Webster’s Falls

According to the City of Waterfalls site Webster’s Falls is a curtain waterfall with a 22 metre plunge and is found in the Spencer Gorge/Webster’s Falls Conservation Area in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The water flows down Spencer Creek and the falls is the largest in the area.

Finished!!!!!

….I started out gangbusters

….but when I got about three quarters done I slowed down. There were days when I only placed about three or four pieces successfully. In the last couple of days, however, when I got down to the last 100 pieces things became easier and pieces fit into place, especially when I focused on the shape of the piece rather than the colours. My sister in Chatham shared this strategy with me when I talked to her earlier in the week.

I’m now ready to tackle another one. I think I’ll borrow one from my daughter.
