May the maple leaf always fly high and proud, symbolizing the strength and unity of our nation. Wishing you a day filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories! Taken last year as I don't have much time this year to celebrate.
A ship sails through the Narrows, an iconic Newfoundland landmark. It will be Canada day on July 1st. A day we all can celebrate in this great country
Fireworks from my bedroom window last night. It was too hot for this wimp to find a better location, so one does what one can under the circumstances. Under these circumstances, quite a bit of cropping was required. But the result is good enough for me: ISO 100 f11 4 seconds.

The only sunny highlight of my day as cloudy skies with periodic rain showers claimed the rest of the Canada Day celebrations at the rodeo and It has been pouring for days. (Insert eyeball roll here) I don't know about other people but I have had enough; time to make hay! Thankfully, this baby poked its head out briefly as if to say, "Canada eh?" Mama grebe had two newborn chicks when I left with two eggs still needing to hatch. If the weather clears I will get back there to check out how the family is doing. I know, you are thinking, "But where are the baby Loons?" Sadly, my Loons never had a successful hatching this year due to a bad windstorm that damaged the nest so I made lemonade and found this pair of Red-necked Grebes instead and have been waiting in anticipation for this day. Normally, I can't get near grebes them being amazing, expert divers and only having a 300mm lens. I have watched this new couple from the beginning battle it out and win for territorial position, then build their sturdy nest at the far end of the lake in a quiet location away from boats. Hopefully I will find loon babies at other lakes someday soon this summer, if not, there is always next year....as they only lay one set of eggs. Needless to say, this was taken from my trusty Yak!
A very different Canada Day today, most outdoor celebrations have been cancelled including the fireworks show. I imagine most people will be staying close to home this year or enjoying the local lakes, beaches and parks.
Climbed Mount St Helens on Canada Day. It was a pretty special climb for several reasons. 1) I climbed it with a friend I've known for almost 30 years, 2) It was my 20th summit of this mountain, 3) It was Canada Day!
Sorry to post and run, I will be back soon to visit everyone's photostreams and comments.
We are not a perfect country. Sometimes we need to reflect. Sometimes we need to do better. But we have lots to be proud of and we are still one of the best countries in the world. So Happy Canada Day everyone.

No sooner had I sat down on nice bench nearby when an idiot with a massive sound system decided to settle next to us. So we caught the bus home for some peace and quiet.
well, the weather is perfect today for celebrating Canada's 150th birthday, and I'm sure there is going to be a lot of serious partying, there's one starting right in front of this flag festooned carport, lots of drinking, bullshitting and laughter, but then that's every weekend at my brother-in-law's place :)
Canada Day commemorates the anniversary of the 1867 enactment of the Constitution Act, which united the separate colonies of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick into a single, self-governing dominion.

Back to fireworks for a day. I'm sure there will be more concert photos before long.

On Canada Day, I was super lucky to be allowed onto the roof of a condo at Bathurst and Queen's Quay to take night shots of the city and the fireworks.
The weatherman in the Limestone City said we might have showers up this way this evening. I am thinking he may be right. Just as well that North Frontenac is not having fireworks in Ompah this year then between rain and bugs it won't be that nice.
I want to thank each and everyone for your comments and visits to my little space here on Flickr. I may not get to respond to all the comments, rest assured, I appreciate them all more than you know. Awards and invites aren't necessary.
We have an orange heat warning today. If you are heading out to celebrate Canada Day make sure you stay hydrated. If you are not heading out anywhere, stay hydrated as well as trying to stay indoors.
A long duration heat event begins today.
Maximum temperatures of 31 to 35 degrees Celsius Minimum temperatures of 21 to 25 degrees Celsius.
Beginning today and continuing into the weekend.
The hottest days are expected to be today and Thursday, with maximum temperatures up to 35 degrees Celsius expected. Minimum temperatures of 21 to 25 degrees Celsius will provide little relief from the heat.
Hot and humid air can also bring deteriorating air quality and can result in the Air Quality Health Index approaching the high-risk category.
