Incomplete; future indefinite - 2024 or 50 by 30?

 I was up at 4AM.

After opening my eyes it was 4:43

North-east toward  the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, also known as Chippewas of Mnjikaning and Chippewas of Rama Mnjikaning First Nation on whose traditional lands I also live, I hope in peace and as a good neighbour.

Vicki and I then drove into Orillia, to the harbour and set up:

And watched a a Great Blue Heron fly by:

It was then 5;30AM

This Sun is rising over Rama has it has done  since people first lived here, once upon a time.

I knew this was going to happen. And this gives me hope that Mother Nature's Laws will be fullfilled even if wee humans choose to ignore them at our peril. We are all immigrants; we are all minorities.

Is there a glimmer of hope, that we humans will someday understand?

Odd, not Trilliums!

 Showing my versatility?

These leaves are between 10 and 15cm,

And now for something completely different:

How about that - and during Covid, when others are going into the width or girth.

And there are many shades of green, too:

And then there are some more Trillium-like characteristics as well:

It is not easy being green

Well!!!

 

Actually I was shocked yesterday. So I want to dedicate the following to Kermit and Jim Henson.

 

 “If you care about what you do and work hard at it, there isn't anything you can't do if you want to.”

  “I know that it's easier to portray a world that's filled with cynicism and anger, where problems are solved with violence. What's a whole lot tougher is to offer alternatives, to present other ways conflicts can be resolved, and to show that you can have a positive impact on your world. To do that, you have to put yourself out on a limb, take chances, and run the risk of being called a do-gooder.”
― Jim Henson, It's Not Easy Being Green: And Other Things to Consider 

 

  “Here's some simple advice: Always be yourself. Never take yourself to seriously. And beware of advice from experts, pigs, and members of Parliament.”
― Jim Henson, It's Not Easy Being Green: And Other Things to Consider 

 

“Moving right along
In search of good times
And good news,
With good friends you can't lose.
This could become a habit.

 

 

 

“Moving right along
In search of good times
And good news,
With good friends you can't lose.
This could become a habit.

Opportunity just knocked,
Let's reach out and grab it,
Together we'll nab it,
We'll hitch-hike, bus, or yellow cab it.”

Thanks for the memories,

Red and Yellow Trilliums

 I was out wandering, wool-gathering as it were, when Vicki notice the yellow Trilliums.

They do not appear to be the "true" Yellow

Rather, they appear with Red Trilliums  more or less as a colour morph:

 Here is a link to identifying Trilliums 101

In detail - shape and size the 2 resemble each other, too, also to opening at the same time, ahead of the White Trillium:

Vicki has seen them in other years.

Two is company but three is great

 The following occurred near Lake Simcoe on Wednesday April 21. I was passing a tiny "ditch" of water when "something" caught my eye. And now I am "all at sea" so to speak.
