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.

With the Chateau Laurier in the background probably one of the last photos of my trip that I will post...I found a few on the Rebel which I had forgotten...
Plus it's been raining here non stop...picture taking is not at it's best these days.....
What a grand day this was....wow
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.
7767 chugs its way south past the Ottawa siding headed for Lima. First ever Toledo Sub chase, went pretty good. Don’t expect many more pics though.
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.

Parliament Hill colloquially known as The Hill, is an area of Crown land on the southern banks of the Ottawa River in downtown Ottawa, Ontario. Its Gothic revival suite of buildings serves as the home of the Parliament of Canada and contains a number of architectural elements of national symbolic importance. Parliament Hill attracts approximately 3 million visitors each year. Originally the site of a military base in the 18th and early 19th centuries, development of the area into a governmental precinct began in 1859, after Queen Victoria chose Bytown as the capital of the Province of Canada. Following a number of extensions to the parliament and departmental buildings and a fire in 1916 that destroyed the Centre Block, Parliament Hill took on its present form with the completion of the Peace Tower in 1927.
