Hemerocallis day-lilies in my mother's garden.









Pokeweed, Phytolacca american, on the bluff overlooking the beach. As neighbourhood children we used to press the poisonous dark blue berries to make magic potions.









Feeding Canada geese at Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary. Jack Miner (1865-1944) was the first conservationists to use metal bands to track the migration patterns of wild ducks and geese. His work made him one of the most famous Canadians during his lifetime. He even received an honour from the Pope. His farm is a few miles from my home. As school children we would get packed on buses to go see thousands of migrating Canada geese getting fed on the fields at Jack Miner's.









An affectionate llama at Colasanti Farms.

What does one feed a Canadian goose?

It was barley, I believe. You could pick up a free mug of grain at the gate to this pond enclosure, one per person.
