Peace And Quiet On A Path

 The park had few visitors on the morning I passed through, which suits me fine.

I crossed over the road to the lakeside. Across on the western shore is the Arboretum, consisting of a multitude of trees, technically part of the Experimental Farm.

A squirrel was busy at work in the grass, looking for acorns it had buried and subsequently forgotten.

My journey was near its end. As mentioned the other day, this visit was my last taken for formal autumn photos, but I still have more autumn posts over the coming days.

A Finale For The Tulips

 All good things must come to an end. A few days of photographing in May gives me a lot of material to share, and so today is the last of my Tulip Festival series. The south end of Commissioners Park, with its backdrop of houses, is a fitting way to end things.

Movement in the above shot caught my eye. It was a diligent squirrel gardener in the shrubs at the property line.

And so with these shots we bring things to an end. I hope that you have enjoyed this series.

Flower Glories Along The Pathway

 Returning once more to the tulips.

I headed over to the standalone beds at this end of the park.

Colours

 These tulip beds are popular for photographers.

Note the lone pink in the lower right here. What we call a rogue tulip.

We'll be back to Commissioners Park to close out this series, but tomorrow we go find tulips across the Ottawa River.
