A juvenile, who finally popped out of our cherry tree to give me a clean shot.

Happy belated Canada Day! (That's what happens when you shoot a picture on film... one month later and I've got the shot.)

"In the blue Canadian Rockies

Spring is silent through the trees

And the golden poppies are blooming

'Round the banks of Lake Louise..."

The music of The Byrds comes to mind as CPKC's Royal Canadian Pacific pulls into the station at Banff, Alta., beneath the majestic Canadian Rockies. Tempestuous late-spring clouds swirl around the jagged peaks of Cascade Mountain, setting a brooding alpine mood for scene reminiscent of the days when passenger trains regularly called on this scenic resort town.

Today, however, Banff marks the end of the line for this short excursion from Calgary. Here, CPKC 21B has reached its terminus, where the power will soon be turned for the return trip to Cowtown. Leading the way is a trio of EMD FP9s, followed by a distinguished set of business cars: Van Horne, Major Rogers, Craigellachie, Selkirk, and Mount Stephen.

Clearing out some space on my cards on this rainy day. Decided to process this one.

There are quite a few Canada Geese on the ponds in my neighborhood. I always love to hear them and see them flying in formation. Thanks for your support.🌷

Although the Canada (Gray) Jay is a very sweet looking bird, every once in awhile they do look a little villainous. Algonquin Park has a Canada Jay banding program. All known Canada Jays in Algonquin Park are banded and studied. This Canada Jay has no bands. Its a newbie.

Rondeau Provincial Park, Aug 7, 2022.

We were surprised to see this Canada at the pond today.

Evidently the fall migration is starting.

We also had a black and white warbler and, as usual, lots of yellow warblers

Cardellina canadensis

Canada Warblers fly more than 3,000 miles from their wintering grounds in South America to their breeding grounds in the United States and Canada.

The last rays of sunlight illuminate a flock of Canada geese at Maroon Lake, Colorado.

Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Thank you very much for your kind comments, favorites and looking

People far smarter than I have suggested that Canada's true birthday is November 7, 1885, the day the last spike was driven on the Canadian Pacific Railroad. CP has painted up 10 locomotives(SD70ACU's) in their original tuscan and red colours scheme, hearkening back to better; probably better times of the 1950's. The national debt was almost non- existent, and there were 2 daily cross country trains on CP as opposed to none now. Today, July 1st, one of these beautiful engines lead a now typically enormous freight train east of Cambridge Ontario, and the imagination of days past fills the heart. Happy Canada Day.
