I told @camillealexa that my necklaces disappeared in the move and so she gave me this birdie.

Riverdale Farm rooster sees nothing to be excited about.

Having some filter fun with a dripping icicle, here in #Toronto after the #icestorm.

And this little fluffbundle is a wee baby lamb.

Donkey! Really, what more is there to be said?

My best cardinal capture to date! From @RiverdaleFarmAd in #toronto

Just a few more icicles. I think these are less about the #icestorm and more about dripping drainpipes. #iceTO

Another of my shots from the #icestorm the other day. Leaves under water, in midair. #iceTO

It took a bit of clambering, but I made a snow-angel in our courtyard.

One of the things I love about my #Toronto neighborhood is that I see horse cops all the time. Look at this dappled grey on Queen!

I have a couple more photos of the ice storm, but in the meantime, some fluffy Rumble wishes to supermodel for you.

Even the mighty Tim Horton falls beneath the slickening forces of the #icestorm. #iceTO

Icy tree looks like a brain. How cool is that?

More icicle fun during the #icestorm. The sign says Don't Walk.

Holiday wreath gets frosty in the #icestorm here in #Toronto.

Icicle bicycle. Because I'm still fascinated by all the #Toronto bike commuters and their hardware.

More ice storm prettiness. @kellyoyo and I have only realized much of #toronto is without power.

Ice storm versus leaf on King West, #Toronto. #iceTO

Bits and pieces of the recent past, with captions: ice storm pics, a trip to Riverdale Farm, and more! If you haven’t seen them elsewhere, enjoy!

New Life! (Toronto, Day 224)

Today I went and shot pictures at the St. James Cemetery and Riverdale Farm. Among the domesticated life forms I got to see, in one of the barns, was this brand new baby lamb:

There were also horsies and birdies and pigses and a cow. And many of the paths were blocked because they hadn’t been swept yet, so when I go back there will be much more to see.

The whole set will end up here, when I get them uploaded. Right at this second, it’s just the farm animals.

Winter gear for a winter day, stylishly worn by @kellyoyo

Another bicycle versus snow shot, here in stormy #Toronto. There's more of the stuff falling even now.

Shooting snow on the shiny surfaces of the @ROMToronto also nets a shot of me and @kellyoyo.

I am completely amazed by the folks who use bicycles year-round in my new home city of Toronto.

I love amethyst geodes. They are sparkly, amethyst is my birthstone, and my grandmother Modestina had some--so they remind me of her.

And this gorgeous slice of the @ROMtoronto just makes me long to see Sicilia's Palatine Chapel again.

An arch I passed on my hasty way to the nature photos at the Royal Ontario Museum. @ROMToronto.

Snowflakes on sandal. It's beginning to look a lot like winter!

Gifties in the snow: a bird from my sister, petrified wood from one grandmother, small pots from the other grandma. #snowTO

This chocolate olive-oil cake is my favorite of the many wonderful treats on offer at @FornoCultura bakery on King Street West, #Toronto.

Another variation on the holiday tree theme.

A small slice of the goodness on offer at our favorite Italian bakery, @fornocultura.

Shiny LED trees in a Toronto park. Still no snow.

This is what happens when Rumble tries to stop me from doing the #Buffyrewatch.

I and @kellyoyo are also enchanted by our neighbor's collection of holiday chickens. We pass them each time we go to @downwarddogyoga!

Frosty parties hard at night, collapses on the still-green grass come morning.

Neighborhod squirrel flattens himself against a tree; I think it's a wind avoidance strategy.

Instagrams, a set on Flickr.

A lot of shots from the vicinity of the Royal Ontario Museum, a number of bikes parkedin the snow, and other captioned bits and pieces of life in Toronto. Enjoy!!
