Saturday, 19 September 2020: our temperature around 4:00 pm is 20C (windchill 20C). Sunrise is at 7:19 am and sunset is at 7:39 pm. Air quality today is at Moderate Risk, due to smoke that has arrived in Calgary from the wildfires on the West Coast. Overcast sky.
Fairly recently, my daughter and a friend (who is in her COVID bubble at work) went to the Calgary Farmyard for a visit. My intention had been to do this for the last few years, but somehow it just never happened. I tend to think of it as a place to visit around Halloween. Until I saw my daughter's photos, I didn't realize that the farm also has a sunflower area as well as a Corn Maze. Nothing would ever get me into a Corn Maze - with no sense of direction, I would never find my way out.
On 29 August 2020, I took another look at their website and saw that the following day was going to be their last day being open in summer. So, on the spur of the moment, I dashed out east of the city, found the farm, and luckily found an empty parking spot. Tons of people with young kids, but still plenty of space to be distanced from everyone. All sorts of thing for kids to climb in and on. Farm animals and the sunflowers were what I headed for. The sunflowers had mostly passed their prime, so photos looking over a field of flower heads resulted in very colourless, uninspiring images. The plants that still had bright yellow flowers were being enjoyed by endless bees.
Llamas are one of my favourite farm animals to see and photograph, though these ones were not being very cooperative. Nearby goats were entertaining and offered a few photo opportunities.
After I left the farm. there was still plenty of time to drive the backroads. Three beautiful Hawks - two were Swainson's and the other a Red-tailed Hawk, I think - made the drive even more worthwhile.
