No Denying Newfoundland!

No Denial Path

One of the great signs we came upon while hiking near Mad Rock, Newfoundland, August 2013

I’ve just returned from nearly three weeks in beautiful Newfoundland.  Many posts to come from the east and west of the island.  This hike near Mad Rock was terrific. Views of the ocean, dramatic rocks and rolling terrain.  We loved the signs we encountered, particularly this one.  It was near here, on rocks by the ocean, that we saw whales nearby.  Our best guess is that they were minke whales.


A Refreshing Drink

Here’s another bird, a more common mallard. Still, she was delightful to see earlier this summer on the Cyprus Lake Trail in Bruce Peninsula National Park.  I see many mallards in the city and enjoyed seeing their countryside relative.
