Various Locations

 One day during the festival, I stopped by the Canadian War Museum. Planters around the front and side include tulips.


At the north side of the Museum is a full bed of tulips.


This particular day included heading over the Ottawa River into Gatineau to photograph tulips over there. Along the way, I stopped across from City Hall, with these tulips in a planter in the foreground.


Coming back from Gatineau, I photographed tulips, with the Chateau Laurier as the background.


A short walk away in the downtown core, more tulips in a raised garden outside an office building. Note the statue in the background, as you may remember it. It's part of a pair of sculptures of an indigenous hunter and a deer, unseen to the right.


On another day, I photographed these tulips at a residence near Commissioners Park.


These were outside St. Giles Presbyterian Church in the Glebe.


And my last shot for today- a bunny near a tulip in a front yard in the Glebe.

  6. Seeing a bunny makes me wonder if they like the taste of tulips. Probably not. And it reminds me of the rabbit which hopped quickly through our apartments grassy area. Nothing worth munching on there!

    1. I see a fair number of rabbits, and will always say hello to them.

  8. Gardening can be tricky, but there are so many easy things to grow, and many that require not so much attention, they just need to grow and be appreciated!
