These cicadas are unique to the Midwest of the US. They are cyclical--- come out for a short period of time, then burrow near tree roots and re-emerge years later.
According to the local MSJ expert on cicadas, this year we are seeing the emergence of "Brood 10" which are 17 year cicadas. They have shown up early, possibly due to the warm winter we had. They were not due to be seen until 2021.

Excerpt from www.toronto.ca:
Jarvis Street Baptist Church has its origins in a small group of people who first gathered in October of 1818, in what was then York, Upper Canada. By 1832, the congregation had moved to Lombard Street, and by 1848, to Bond Street. In the late 1860s, church membership was such that a new, larger building was needed. In 1875, the church moved to the intersection of Jarvis and Gerrard Streets, the current location of the Gothic style building. The church survived a major fire in 1938 and was rebuilt shortly after with a unique U-shaped sanctuary. The Gothic architecture is unusual for a Baptist church.

Nothing unique about this shot, except that it’s a beaver, which I don’t see very often. This guy appeared rather suddenly, surfacing close to the shoreline where I was walking; he climbed up on a submerged log and chewed on a stick for a couple of minutes before disappearing again just as quickly. It was as though he came to pose for my camera. Thanks, Bucky!

The albatross at Bempton Cliffs, unique flight pose. The Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris) is thought to be the only Albatross in the northern hemisphere and is such a wonderful bird to see.
Each bead starts with a base of Double Helix's Ekho glass. The bead is struck and reduced in the flame to produce shades purple and blue with a mother of pearl luster. Next each bead is encased for depth and then hand shaped.
C'est le seul machaon que j'ai vu cette année et un peu abîmé. L'environnement n'était pas terrible non plus..
This is the only Swallowtail butterfly I saw this year and one of its wings was damaged. The environment wasn't great either.

11. Former Lakeview Radial Substation
811 Lakeshore Road East
Built c1906
The small building has a unique history and is one of the only reminders of an era when electric streetcars once travelled along this stretch of Lakeshore Road, on their way to Port Credit. The Toronto & York Radial Railway laid electric streetcar tracks along Lakeshore Road, with service beginning in 1906. It is not known for certain when this building was built (sometime between 1906 and 1923), but it performed a critical service. The electric radial cars relied on direct current, so as the distance from the power plant increased, the voltage on the line decreased. To augment this, substations containing electric dynamos were built to boost the voltage, and this building is one of the few that remain from that time, although its usage has changed over time.

From Wikipedia:
Elsie Stephen Meighen - born January 22, 1872, Perth, Ontario - and Robert Wilson Reford - born in 1867, Montreal - got married on June 12, 1894.
Elsie Reford was a pioneer of Canadian horticulture, creating one of the largest private gardens in Canada on her estate, Estevan Lodge in eastern Québec. Located in Grand-Métis on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River, her gardens have been open to the public since 1962 and operate under the name Les Jardins de Métis and Reford Gardens.
Born January 22, 1872 at Perth, Ontario, Elsie Reford was the eldest of three children born to Robert Meighen and Elsie Stephen. Coming from modest backgrounds themselves, Elsie’s parents ensured that their children received a good education. After being educated in Montreal, she was sent to finishing school in Dresden and Paris, returning to Montreal fluent in both German and French, and ready to take her place in society.
She married Robert Wilson Reford on June 12, 1894. She gave birth to two sons, Bruce in 1895 and Eric in 1900. Robert and Elsie Reford were, by many accounts, an ideal couple. In 1902, they built a house on Drummond Street in Montreal. They both loved the outdoors and they spend several weeks a year in a log cabin they built at Lac Caribou, south of Rimouski. In the autumn they hunted for caribou, deer, and ducks. They returned in winter to ski and snowshoe. Elsie Reford also liked to ride. She had learned as a girl and spent many hours riding on the slopes of Mount Royal. And of course, there was salmon-fishing – a sport at which she excelled.
In her day, she was known for her civic, social, and political activism. She was engaged in philanthropic activities, particularly for the Montreal Maternity Hospital and she was also the moving force behind the creation of the Women’s Canadian Club of Montreal, the first women club in Canada. She believed it important that the women become involved in debates over the great issues of the day, « something beyond the local gossip of the hour ». Her acquaintance with Lord Grey, the Governor-General of Canada from 1904 to 1911, led to her involvement in organizing, in 1908, Québec City’s tercentennial celebrations. The event was one of many to which she devoted herself in building bridges with French-Canadian community.
During the First World War, she joined her two sons in England and did volunteer work at the War Office, translating documents from German into English. After the war, she was active in the Victorian Order of Nurses, the Montreal Council of Social Agencies, and the National Association of Conservative Women.
In 1925 at the age of 53 years, Elsie Reford was operated for appendicitis and during her convalescence, her doctor counselled against fishing, fearing that she did not have the strength to return to the river.”Why not take up gardening?” he said, thinking this a more suitable pastime for a convalescent woman of a certain age. That is why she began laying out the gardens and supervising their construction. The gardens would take ten years to build, and would extend over more than twenty acres.
Elsie Reford had to overcome many difficulties in bringing her garden to life. First among them were the allergies that sometimes left her bedridden for days on end. The second obstacle was the property itself. Estevan was first and foremost a fishing lodge. The site was chosen because of its proximity to a salmon river and its dramatic views – not for the quality of the soil.
To counter-act nature’s deficiencies, she created soil for each of the plants she had selected, bringing peat and sand from nearby farms. This exchange was fortuitous to the local farmers, suffering through the Great Depression. Then, as now, the gardens provided much-needed work to an area with high unemployment. Elsie Reford’s genius as a gardener was born of the knowledge she developed of the needs of plants. Over the course of her long life, she became an expert plantsman. By the end of her life, Elsie Reford was able to counsel other gardeners, writing in the journals of the Royal Horticultural Society and the North American Lily Society. Elsie Reford was not a landscape architect and had no training of any kind as a garden designer. While she collected and appreciated art, she claimed no talents as an artist.
Elsie Stephen Reford died at her Drummond Street home on November 8, 1967 in her ninety-sixth year.
In 1995, the Reford Gardens ("Jardins de Métis") in Grand-Métis were designated a National Historic Site of Canada, as being an excellent Canadian example of the English-inspired garden.(Wikipedia)

LES JARDINS DE MÉTIS
Créés par Elsie Reford de 1926 à 1958, ces jardins témoignent de façon remarquable de l’art paysager à l’anglaise. Disposés dans un cadre naturel, un ensemble de jardins exhibent fleurs vivaces, arbres et arbustes. Le jardin des pommetiers, les rocailles et l’Allée royale évoquent l’œuvre de cette dame passionnée d’horticulture. Agrémenté d’un ruisseau et de sentiers sinueux, ce site jouit d’un microclimat favorable à la croissance d’espèces uniques au Canada. Les pavots bleus et les lis, privilégiés par Mme Reford, y fleurissent toujours et contribuent , avec d’autres plantes exotiques et indigènes, à l’harmonie de ces lieux.
Created by Elsie Reford between 1926 and 1958, these gardens are an inspired example of the English art of the garden. Woven into a natural setting, a series of gardens display perennials, trees and shrubs. A crab-apple orchard, a rock garden, and the Long Walk are also the legacy of this dedicated horticulturist. A microclimate favours the growth of species found nowhere else in Canada, while the stream and winding paths add to the charm. Elsie Reford’s beloved blue poppies and lilies still bloom and contribute, with other exotic and indigenous plants, to the harmony of the site.

Deeply lobed leaves and enormous height make this tropical “monster” an eye-catching addition to the summer garden. People will stop and stare at this unusual Elephant Ear whose leaves easily reach 3-4’ in length. The uniquely mottled stems give it more character.
Easy to grow in containers, this Elephant Ear likes plentiful water and fertilizer during the growing season.

From a 1980 slide I took while in Ocho Rios in Jamaica. I believe the empty beaches are much more built up now.
As I was out in our backyard setting up to capture a full moon image, I turned around and this view popped! Had fun playing with this capture! The edit I came up with is of our chiminea that we fire up quite often.

The hawk-headed parrot is an extremely unique and unusual parrot. It is the only member of the Genus Deroptyus. There are two subspecies, The Brazilian Deroptyus accipitrinus fuscifrons, from the lower Amazon basin and the Guiana hawk-head, Deroptyus accipitrinus from tropical northern South America. Hawk-heads stand alone in the world of parrots. This genus is unique in both appearance and personality. The hawk-headed parrot possesses a wonderful ability to raise the feathers on it's head in a fan formation. These feathers are a rich shade of red tipped in cobalt blue. The displayed hawk-headed fan resembles the beautiful headdress of an Indian warrior. Hawk-headed babies are adorable and sweet. However, once they reach maturity, hawk-heads can become nervous and unpredictable. Due to their aggressive nature, great thought and care needs to be taken prior to purchasing this species.
Traits:
Hawk-headed parrots are playful and will hang upside down, roll around and shriek or giggle for attention. The hawk-headed parrots closely bond with their owners, but beware of their high energy and excitable nature. Owners should refrain from over stimulating hawk heads while playing. Hawk-headed parrots like to be held close, but also like to hang, swing and play alone while you watch. They are prone to nervousness, even if hand-raised, so learn to read your hawk head's mood and you'll reduce the number of unsolicited nips. The hawk-headed parrot is not recommended for novice bird owners and better for experienced caretakers.
