http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/11/frostty-morning.html
Wednesday, November 3, 2010. We had the first heavy frost of the. Fall yesterday with temps of minus 5C, that's around 27F in American. While the car was defrosting I took a few photos in the back yard. Brrr - pretty but brrrr! Love that first photo. Are you mentally ready for winter - Im not! November 3, 2010 at 7:15 PM. We had that too! November 3, 2010 at 8:50 PM. Theyre all great shots and leave the viewer in no doubt as to how cold it must have been. Brrr. I love numbers 1 and 3 the best.

Thursday, August 12, 2010. Skywatch Friday. Punk Birds. These pileated woodpeckers were in our back yard today, pecking away on the wood on the hydro pole. I missed seeing them though, my man was the one who took these photos of them outlined against the sky. They are large birds, 18 inches long, and the noise they make hammering into the wood can be heard over a kilometre away. I hope they come back again. For more pictures of skies visit Skywatch Friday. Links to this post. Wednesday, August 11, 2010.

http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/10/menagerie.html
Saturday, October 16, 2010. I have a new friend M whom I met through this blog. It turns out that he lives on a farm nearby and on that farm he has a few pets: peacocks, emus, chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, goats, llamas, alpacas, sheep, goats, horses, dogs, cats, a pig and a donkey. It's a happy place. Thats a right old collection to keep one busy. Looks like fun in a chaotic I-wouldnt-last-a-week kinda way! October 16, 2010 at 3:49 PM. Ooooh, what a nice collection of beasties! One slice at a time.

hereabouts: Salmon Run
http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/09/salmon-run.html
Saturday, September 25, 2010. Chinook salmon runs aren't only found on the west coast as here in Ontario we have our own versions. Some years ago Lake Ontario started to be stocked with those Pacific coast natives to provide fishing fun and a predator for alewives. Alewives are a fish and not a Hogarthian pub landlady BTW, oh and they may now be endangered because of too many hungry Chinook. Looking upstream to Port Hope. And downstream with the uranium refinery in the distance. There were several dead f...

hereabouts: Different Days, Same Lake
http://hereabouts-ontario.blogspot.com/2010/09/different-days-same-lake.html
Friday, September 24, 2010. Different Days, Same Lake. Here are two impressions of Lake Ontario, the first images were taken a week ago in Cobourg, It rained heavily all day and the wind was gusting strongly. Yesterday I was a few kilometres west of Cobourg in Port Hope and it was a warm and sunny breezy day. Wait til the waves die down maybe. Surf's up- there are some surfers in there but hard to see in the grey murk. Seagulls, or should that be lakegulls? September 24, 2010 at 11:44 AM. Unauthorized us...
