My good apple tree (as in apples that taste good) has half of it so dead this woodpecker has feasted several nights in a row.

Spring and all the hope it brings.
An up close photo of the beginning of new green leaves just starting to unfurl and beautiful apple blossoms white with the lightest tinge of pink at the base of each petal. Softly out of focus is the old gnarled apple tree with lacy looking branches dotted with new leaves and blossoms, the deeper blue of sky, a brown wooden fence and the early green of lawn in the background.

A picture of a heart shape with a blue upper portions and a yellow lower portion. There is lettering in opposite colours (yellow across the top, blue across the bottom) saying I Stand With Ukraine. The shade of yellow and blue are the same shades on the Ukrainian flag.

From my window I see the outline of the lightly frosted branches of the apple tree, light frost on the clothesline, a dusting of snow on the roofs and grass, against grey winter sky. In the spring I think I’ll start planting for a winter garden to feast the eye next year. #yeg #winter
Image shows a lightly frosted, almost leafless mature apple tree, light frost on a clothesline, a dusting of snow on the roofs and grass, against a grey winter sky. Setting is a backyard in an older late 1960s suburban neighborhood. A view of the yard, garage, fence, bbq, as well as neighbours garage and tops of older spruce trees seen in the distance. Looks cold (was about -10 Celsius), gives thoughts of curling up with a blanket and hot chocolate.

Some people have dogs that gaze at them adoringly and some people have dogs that gaze at them like weird little goblins.
A large black lab cross laying on his back and grinning up at his person who has her arm out to give him scritches. The dog looks like he’s upside down and his jowls are relaxed and floppy, showing his front teeth.

I loved the North Drywood Falls hike and waterfall. Easier hike and not crowded. Lots of great viewpoints around the falls to have your lunch.

Staying warm with a fluffy blanket and an over-sized lapdog asleep on the feet! Stay warm Edmonton and keep an eye on your vulnerable neighbours.
