Bruce is a city dog from Berkeley, CA. He is back visiting my brother and his grandmother.
Me thinks he would like to go home

Looking out onto Georgian bay from the most Northern section of the Bruce Peninsula. Shot using a Polarizing filter to eliminate the reflection on the nearby water.
Thanks for viewing!
Yesterday we had summery + 22 ° here in Germany. I decided to enjoy the beautiful weather and take a walk along the river. I took my tripod and the ND 64 and ND 1000 long exposure filters with me. I thought so much sun you're going to need the ND 1000, but there were also a lot of long darker shadows. As soon as I had set up my tripod and made camera settings, a woman came with her black and white spotted pudding (Dalmatiner), which shook my tripod and camera. Let me know if you want to see the photo?? After a short conversation I could finally devote myself to the water. Then I saw him, the little rock. I said to myself Gosh, this is Bruce, the Shark from "Finding Nemo"! What a character. With his mischievous smile and sharp teeth, he loomed out of the water like a ghost, about to pounce on me. ;-))))
Fog is reported for tomorrow morning, I'm excited to see who I'll meet there! Have a nice evening , all!
So the consensus among the groundhogs who predicted whether we have an early spring or not, is that we will have an early spring. Although that made a lot of people happy, my husband and I decided we would go out and enjoy that huge dump of snow we got last week before it was all gone! We snowshoed part of the Bruce Trail at Burnt Point. It was an amazing hike. I cannot remember the last time the trees were so full of fresh snow. Truthfully, I am enjoying the winter!
Bruce Bay. Every few years I come here and it has been different everytime, except for the rain. Another tiny town of less than 35 people.
If you do not know Wallpaper skip this post.
LOL they call me Bruce I'll have to complain.
Wallpaper 'World View' competition second place winner
First runner-up: Bruce Novak
‘Man in front of Sky’
‘Although a relatively straightforward photograph, Bruce Novak’s shot immediately stood out as an interesting study of a young man. The uncertainty of the setting – a cloudy sky which on closer inspection is an image riveted to a wall, combined with a strong composition and the daydreaming adolescent, create the kind of portrait that could easily appear in Wallpaper*.’
Because he just looks like a Bruce. Moss Landing, just north of Monterey, California.

Now that we are staying even closer to home for our hiking, we have taken on the goal of completing the Sydenham section of the Bruce Trail. Much of it runs right through our city limits or just outside. We have hiked many parts of it over the years. By doing our best to go from end to end and not missing a single section, we have discovered little treasures along the way that are new to us. I love that a lot of the trail is rugged and untamed.
We have a trail book with maps that are out of date in some spots due to some land acquisitions by the Bruce Trail Conservancy. That means parts of the trail that were along a road are now in the woods or fields. But we also use the phone app which is more accurate and it also warns of temporary closures which have happened due to COVID. Tons of people have come up from the bigger cities to walk these trails and they have often overwhelmed parking lots or left too much garbage! We also had to be careful of hunting season. However, on this day all was perfect, including the weather.
When the maps or apps don't work, we have the white blazes to show us the way. It can be like a scavenger hunt at times to find the next blaze. But that is half the fun. You never know what is around the next bend! BTW, we have officially hiked half of the 120 km!

This is one of my favourite sections of the Bruce Trail that we are responsible for as Trail Captains. It is the view you get just as you crawl out of the crevice. I love the character of the those trees ahead. This whole section of trail is varied and moderately difficult to hike with a lot of rugged ups and downs. It has a small waterfall in the spring and two crevices to walk through. Our job is to inspect the trail seasonally for fallen trees on the trail. If we can remove them on our own, we will. If the tree is too big, we let the work crew know so they can bring in heavier equipment. In the past two years, we have repainted the trails blazes and replaced a few signs. We check for overhanging branches that might interfere with a hiker who is carrying a backpack but we cannot take too much of the canopy out. If the vegetation along the trail starts to cover the path, we will cut away some of it. Again, the trail needs to be free of hazards and cleared enough to be passable without making it too wide or upsetting the natural balance of nature. We are so happy to write in all our reports so far that we never see any garbage. Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!
Have a great Monday :)

December 10, 2005 - Holiday Party. Scott Services Bruce Pt. I. Wanna learn more about Scott? Listen to his crazy podcast--Starcast ...Drama, Dreams, Music, & More.
Described as 'the most interesting butterfly in the world' by the British entomologist E. B. Poulton on account of the females mastery of mimicry. Females are found in at least fourteen different morphs which mimic the colours and patterns of other butterflies which are poisonous or distasteful to predators. The males meanwhile are of a more uniform appearance.
Also known as the White Handkerchief they are found throughout Sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar, this male sighted roosting in Kibale Forest, Uganda.
