We are off on a birding trip to British Columbia! I won’t have much time to enjoy all your new photos until our return in mid-June. The trip couldn’t have come at a better time. A microburst storm went through our area in Saturday and we, along with most of the city and across the river in Quebec, have been without power since 15:45, May 21. Internet connection almost non-existent. So much damage that the hydro company cannot predict when repairs will be complete. The airport is mostly operational, thank goodness :)
Ottawa International Airport, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. May 23, 2022.
Today was a beautiful, crisp winter morning, with actual snow and little wind. We took advantage of the weather to look for the Hawk Owl and other birds, and to enjoy some fresh air. Tonight we are getting freezing rain into tomorrow, so no fun to be had outside for the next few days.
This weed was covered in hoar frost and caught the sun nicely. It may be Queen Anne's Lace or something similar.

Canada's Capital.
From left to right: The Fairmont Laurier Hotel, Rideau Canal, Canadian Parliament.
This is the heart of the federal government of Canada usually referred to as Parliament Hill. This vantage point from the Quebec side of the border allows one to see the back of Parliament on the Ottawa River.
This will most probably be the last of my trip postings.....so I though I'd go out with a dramatic type shot ....I had made a few b/w with the purple and orange filters on.....I love the detail of this magnificent old hotel against the big and puffy clouds....
Thank you for all of the great comments you have left me regarding my trip to Ottawa and Montreal.... you are the best.
A southbound rack train makes its way down the CSX Toledo Subdivision on a sunny Winter afternoon, passing the Baltimore & Ohio CPL's south of Ottawa, Ohio.
Peter and I woke up early this morning and cycled downtown. The light was beautiful as we cycled along the Ottawa River, crossing into Gatineau, Quebec and observing the light changing over Parliament Hill. Sadly, we couldn't stay long as we had to get back home and start the work day. It was, however, beautiful while it lasted :)
Ottawa work car C 30 and an interesting single truck car behind it (presumably also a work car). Dupe slide in my collection, photographer unknown.
