Cannabis has been fully legal in Canada since 2018, but I still find things like this rather disconcerting. Seen near the airport on a recent visit to Toronto. To avoid misunderstanding, the Subway Sandwich shop wasn't selling cannabis but the shop nextdoor to it was. (Called Runway Pot if anyone is interested).

Close-up of a robber fly trapped on a windowpane and trying to find a way out. (The details are best seen when the photo is enlarged).

A local rabbit in the garden, well camouflaged. They are so used to humans that it allowed me to approach quite close. But there is a limit, this far and no further. One step over the invisible line and it was away like lightening.

The eclipse April 8th 2024- just South of Montreal. The orange images were taken using an improvised eclipse filter, the centre image, the eclipse at totality, was taken without the filter. The eclipse began at 14.14 (top) and ended at 16.36 p.m, with the total eclipses lasting only two minutes. The partial eclipses are lined up in order (beginning the top), but other than that there is no accuracy in terms of timing or position.

The April 8th, 2024, eclipse seen from near Montreal using a different camera setting from the other eclipse photo. An interesting experience. It got darker slowly, and cold and the wind picked up. Then the sun disappeared completely and suddenly leaving only a black hole where the sun had been and the disk of the corona. Everything gets dark, even the streetlights turn on, and rather eerie. It's very impressive.
The eclipse began at 14.14 in the afternoon, but totality, when the sun was covered entirely and we could look directly at the eclipse with the naked eye, lasted only two minutes, from 15.26 and 40 seconds to 15.28 and 42 seconds.

The geese are back. I'm glad to see them return after the winter but really they are a mixed blessing, noisy, messy and awkward.

Not sure how to describe this. Silver furniture in a glass box, office towers, a giant metal circle and various reflections. And if you look very hard there are also polar bears.
