We drove out to the country to Wheelers Maple Sugar Camp on Monday, Family Day. Naturally, I took some pictures. Naturally. And naturally I assume that you naturally want to see them.
Pancakes on the grill
The view from our table, including the bird feeder and the lines that bring the sap to the boiler in the other part of the building. More birds below.
Downy Woodpecker
Nuthatch
Chickadee
I think every view that I’ve seen of Canada, not just your posts A.C., have been just beautiful. The snow scenes are so tranquil, peaceful looking. And seeing the birds are an added bonus!
Love Di ♥
Your photos are so crisp and clear, love them all. You have more snow than we do but they are calling for a storm beginning tonight until tomorrow afternoon. Don’t mind as I know Spring will be here soon, looks like Spring has already arrived in ON. Is the sap running yet? Have a great weekend…….:-)Hugs
Hi Bernie
The sap ran early this year (and by that I don’t mean I went jogging), but I’m not sure is there’s more to come or what the heck is going on.
Spring is over. We’re having quite a snowfall today. I’ll go as far as to call it a storm.

Great pictures! The woodpecker is a Hairy Woodpecker, larger and bigger-billed than the very similar Downy Woodpecker. (Don’t ask me how it got its name)

Naturally, AC, we wanted to see your captures…you thought otherwise?
Wow, it’s winter someplace!
Love the bird shots but I’ll take two of those pancakes please!!Hahaaa

You assume correctly. And please pass the pancakes.
ooh, sweet chickadee.
Mmm, now I’m hungry!
Great bird photos!
That’s more snow than Wisconsin had this past weekend while I was there.
