One sees these signs in many windows in Quebec regarding COVID-19 (the novel coronavirus disease which began in 2019) and roughly translated it means "We will be fine". I understand that in Ontario, people put teddy bears in their windows which pleases passing children. :-)
Because of the restrictions put in place to stay at home and only go out for solo walks or to get groceries and other essential supplies, I have been limiting my photographic excursions to a small area in my neighbourhood within the Montreal borough of Saint-Laurent. Luckily for me, this area encompasses two college campuses. I have explored these places before but never to any great extent. The wildlife I have encountered these last few weeks has been amazing! The most exceptional creature being a Wild Turkey!
Here is a sample of the wildlife I have been able to photograph (with varying degrees of success):
Wild Turkey
Hairy Woodpecker
Groundhog
Robin
Ring-billed Gull
Canada Geese
Turkey Vulture
Crow
Eastern Phoebe
Gray Squirrel
American Goldfinch (in changing plumage)
Downy Woodpecker
Eastern Cottontail
Song Sparrow
Cooper's Hawk
Others that I saw but didn't get an acceptable photograph: Killdeer and Cardinal.
And last but not least, here is a photograph of the recent super Moon. I guess I can't claim that it is in my neighbourhood (as the title implies) but it sure was a lovely sight from my window!
Keep well everyone!
