Spring Colours Around The City

More various locations for tulips today- these being front yards in the Glebe. 

First time for everything- here we have tulips photographed at night, with a strong light source off to the right. These are outside the Aberdeen Pavilion at Lansdowne.

On another day, I passed by the Lord Elgin Hotel and photographed these.

Across the street is Confederation Park. There are a few tulips here, but the spring blossoms really caught my eye.

The aforementioned tulips, which are generally left in the ground to come back in the spring.

Close by, more tulips in a wooded traffic island just north of the park.

At the west edge of Confederation Square is the entrance to Sparks Street. Tulips in the foreground, and one of the entrances to the main post office in the background.

Sparks Street is a pedestrian mall. I continued walking to include tulips in photos.

The building in the background is the main annex to the Library of Parliament; Parliament Hill is one block north. As the work continues on the Hill, the annex is the primary locale for the Library at present. We've been inside before, and I hope to get in for Doors Open in a few days.

One more shot on Sparks Street.

And rounding things out for today, this was the last shot I took of tulips for the year- on the grounds of Library and Archives Canada looking towards the Supreme Court. This was taken on Thursday, en route to an event at the War Museum. I had missed getting here a week or so earlier, and hadn't expected them to still be blooming. We'll return to this series after the theme day.
