…this little guy may look blue but not because it’s Monday

Apparently it’s suppose to rain all week so that’s the reason for the sad face. I can emphasize.

Yesterday I discovered this storage bin in the children’s playground in my neighbourhood. I loved how someone took a relatively unattractive metal box and brought some life and joy to it with paint.

This is my contribution for July 12, 2021. I love the bark on trees. The textures are so interesting and sometimes there are cool patterns throughout the tree.

Many parts of Ontario are infested with Gypsy Moth caterpillars this year. High Park was over-run with them two weeks ago and last week the trees around our cottage were covered with them. Unfortunately they chew through the leaves and can completely defoliate a tree.

The photo on the bottom was taken at High Park earlier this week. Normally this time of year the canopy is so dense that you wouldn’t be able to see the pond from that vantage point.
