Hostas Galore

I love the texture of hostas. These lovely specimens were found at Rosetta McLain Gardens in Scarborough in May. I had to lie on the ground to get them – nobody seemed to blink an eye.

What I’ve Learned From Having My Own Cat for One Year

By , June 24, 2012 11:08 am

Shadow was “cat -napped” from the backyard on June 20, 2011.

One year later I reflect on what I’ve learned from her.

 

  1. Cats are weird, true to their reputation.
  2. Black cats are extra weird.
  3. Fletch and Shadow love each other, showing that Fletch might have been lonely.
  4. Cats can stress out, like when Shadow got so nervous she jumped through the screen door at the cottage.
  5. My cat is not a dog, even though I might treat her that way.
  6. She will follow me around when she wants to. Mostly she runs away from me when I approach her. This I find confusing.
  7. She makes me laugh when she does her little somersaults chasing after her feather toy.
  8. Cats are an excellent form of stress relief. Purring has an especially healing effect on the human.
  9. She doesn’t get enough play time.
  10. Breakfast better be served on time every morning! Note: cheerios are not good for cats.

Here’s all the glitz and glamour. Remember, I’m used to photographing flowers and plants the size of my fingernail!

Here are some photos from our first day at the cottage – spring-like weather.

The next day of March Break we went to Presqu’ile Provincial Park where there is a beach strewn with bird bones; sounds morbid but it makes for an interesting subject.

The third day, the lake ice returned having been blown in from the other side of the lake. It was quite bizarre but it didn’t last long. The weather continued in its spring-like direction.

Last day – spring again. The buds are even pushing through the ground. I hope winter doesn’t return for their sake. A lot of these pictures are taken of leaves in puddles.
