These are a couple of shots that my son took on one of his bike rides out on the river road.

The building in this shot is the Bata Library at Trent University — a place where I spent more hours of my life than I care to think about at this point in time. :)

One of the things I love most about getting up and going out early is the solitude. For those few moments when it’s just me and the birds and the river, I can forget that I live in a city, let my mind wander and envision the day I live by the water and can enjoy my early morning solitude in the privacy of my own space rather than a public park.

Today is a rest day for my legs after three long walks in three days. So here are a couple more shots from yesterday’s outing…

One thing I’ve noticed is that every time I walk the park trails I see something different. It doesn’t seem to matter how many times I look at, and photograph the same view, there’s always something new in it.

This time, walking the trail yielded a couple of views I’ve never seen before because usually when I’m down here there is so much growth that you can’t really see what’s actually on the banks. I had no idea that there were all these little run-off areas that fed into the river before now. It was really nice to see the snow melting and running down the banks. :)

And another sure sign of spring… the geese are arriving! I tried to get them actually coming in for their landing, but I wasn’t fast enough.

And just to add the icing on the cake … two non-photographic signs of spring… I slept with the windows open last night for the first time in months, and heard doves outside my window when I woke up this morning. Makes me very happy indeed that things are finally starting to warm up a bit around here. :)
