Living in Calgary, we are so lucky to have Fish Creek Provincial Park, which is one of the largest urban parks in North America and more or less goes from the far west to the far eastern edge of the city.. The park contains areas of mixed forest and open prairie, so we get a good variety of species. Friends showed me around inside the newly renovated Fish Creek Environmental Learning Centre during their Open House a few days ago. There are several of these huge wall posters in various rooms. Each is a flat poster with a wooden frame over the top, to make one feel as if one is looking through the window to the beautiful park outside. Several of my photos appear on these posters, though the Merlin (lower right) is the only one on this particular poster. Very nicely done. I always like knowing that images are being used for educational purposes. We walked along the Bow River south of 22X (northwards from 194th Avenue SW) all morning. Saw my first Cinnamon Teal and Tree Swallow of the year : ) Called in to see the Great Horned Owlets on the way home, and then went and vacuumed and washed my vehicle so that it's fit to go for an oil change in the next week. Quite a hot, sunny day today - just gorgeous weather (it's supposed to be spring, not summer) - but it is about to change, LOL. Of course - I've got a lovely clean car! Some people perform a Rain Dance - I don't need to, I just wash my car, ha, ha.
