Urban Hummingbird

This fabulous hummingbird is part of a massive mural in Toronto’s east end Chinatown.

How perfect to thank Cindy Knoke for her contributions to Kids’ Month.

After all, Cindy is the winner of the best and most hummingbird posts, ever!

This shot blows up beautifully!

Of Course the mural is not all about the hummingbird.

There are more aspects to this beautiful work.

Such as this flower at the opposite end, or are they leaves that look like a flower?

Mountain peaks and

… and mountain  terraces to a shrine.

It was very difficult to shoot this with my IPhone.

The pic above is cropped. I had to stand quite far away to capture it in 1 piece.

Well, maybe it is all about the hummingbird, and its flower!

Family of Seals

This heart warming family of seals is part of a long wall.

Here’s the baby seal.

They live in a parking lot by Ossington & Queen W.

For me, the seals steal the show…

Even though the center piece is quite catchy…

.. and full of glamour.

…And the lead piece is very flashy.

New Blue Heights

In the alley west of Ossington.

A new painting, with the best up so high, it’s hard to capture…

bluh-6

… and that seems like a new artist, to me.

The bottom half was lost on me after studying the top half for so long.

All in all, a great find by the trash bins!

Nonetheless, when Zena & I spotted this piece on the way home, it was a must capture. It didn’t matter that my hair was drenched in sweat. (Uch!)
