Birdbath fireworks

Love the "shaking off", not sure what kind of bird it was.  If you recognize it - let me know.

Amanita mushrooms in the woods a visual standout!

This may be Amanita muscaria - a striking beauty on the forest floor we came across, although I'm not up on my mushroom identification - looks poisonous!

Jack Frost paints giant snowflakes on the truck window

Interesting reflection of the sunrise on the truck window showing off Mr. Jack Frost's artwork

After brushing the snow off the truck this morning I noticed these frosty designs on the window that looked like giant snowflakes and with the sun rising behind me, it created an interesting effect.

Preparing for Red Bull Crashed Ice in Niagara Falls

Friday November 16th, 2012.



Preparations are underway for the Red Bull Crashed Ice event in Niagara Falls.  I took these pictures today and it would appear the course will start on top of the main building of the Skylon Tower and wind it's way down Murray St. towards the Falls.  I guess they will find the ice somewhere.  Interesting to see they are building a bridge for the course to go over Murray St.
