I took a walk not too long ago through the Landscapes Of Canada Garden at the Museum of Nature, having had decided to photograph it from time to time. Click here for the last occasion. The Garden shows plants and topography from various parts of Canada, including mammoth steppe, tundra, prairies, and boreal forest.
Looks like a great place to walk and explore.
ReplyDeleteThe building is very nice.
ReplyDeleteTomás.
Some nice snaps of the museum here. I especially like the first one.
ReplyDeleteThe Museum building is wonderful William, the gardens interesting to walk through, not often one comes across a mammoth on a garden stroll ☺
ReplyDeleteI like the mammoths in the first pic, William.
ReplyDeleteBut also the building is very beautiful.
i like the natural grasses.
ReplyDelete@Linda: it is.
ReplyDelete@Tomas: I agree.
@Stefan: thanks!
@Grace: certainly not.
@Karl: it is a classic.
@Tex: as do I.
How nice to have this garden along side the museum. The two compliment each other visually.
ReplyDeleteWe have some amazing areas which blend into each other Being a prairie boy I love the wide open spaces. I also liked the Arctic...again wide open spaces. I also liked the high country above the tree line. You guessed it. Wide open spaces.
ReplyDeleteI remember a post you did on this before and I still think this is such a special place.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to have also garden in museum, which shows nature.
ReplyDeleteThe first one. Definitely liking the first one best!
ReplyDelete@Lauren: I think it was a very good idea.
ReplyDelete@Red: wide open spaces are good!
@Sharon: I might do a once a month look at this place. In which case I should start creating links to the previous post.
@Orvokki: it is, yes.
@Norma: it's a good one!
Nice looking building, I'd find it exciting to see how it looks inside.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely garden. I love mammoth exhibit :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely gardens. I like those mammoth!
ReplyDeleteEverything is probably quite dry after the summer we have had!
ReplyDeleteThe mammoth is quite impressive as is the building.
ReplyDelete@Lon: just click on Museum of Nature in the tags- I've paid visits in here before, and they're all in there.
ReplyDelete@Tamago: they are quite a sight to see, as are the plants around them, which the real animals would have known in their time.
@Marianne: I like them too.
@RedPat: it has been a dry summer. A lot of these plants seem to be resilient though.
@Bill: it's a wonderful museum.
Oo! There was great news from the Channel Islands today about finding the skull of a Wooly Mammoth.
