Doesn't this look like a lovely summer day. Sunny, warm, clouds puffing by. Perfect.
You may, if you squint your eyes, or locate a magnifying glass, be able to see the Heron over there on the other side of the river fishing. (My kingdom for a telephoto lens.) I haven't noticed that many Herons around this year. I enjoyed watching this one fish. They are intent and so still. Amazing. I wonder from standing so still if they stiffen up like humans? Inquiring minds.
I wish you could all smell the roses. So lovely!A colourful spot with a stone inukshuk. The Inuit build these in the Arctic. They are used for navigation, hunting, messages etc.
You may have seen this picture on my Instagram. I named this little Mallard "Capability." Eleven, yes 11 ducklings. And she does it all on her own. As you can see the well-behaved ducklings were swimming and feeding ahead of her near the rivers edge. I was setting on a dock. When she noticed me she reared up a little. I have seen other Mallard mothers attack other ducks that ventured too close to their ducklings. They can be fierce.
I had plans to go kayaking this weekend near this spot, but I hurt my foot on a walk. So I reckon I better sit still until it's better. Humbug!

I recently unearthed this happy little watercolour painting, and I have listed as a digital download in my shop.
Until next time...
Be well and safe and stay huggable.
Huggable times are near.
