Scavenger Hunt

 1.  Flowing water: Bracebridge dam

Water is overflowing the dam  and, as you can see, the colour was scrumptious there last weekend.

 2. Faithful

Dogs are such faithful friends! This photo was taken in September when the sand wasn't as cold as it is now for bare feet.

 3. Then & Now: Wenonah II

The Wenonah II - completed in 2002 - is a replica of 20th-century steamships except that she has modern conveniences such as an elevator and air conditioning.

 4. Fingertips

This gray jay sat on a woman's fingertips after she offered it dried cranberries.

5. Fall walk

This is a section of the Spruce Bog Boardwalk in Algonquin Provincial Park. I think the reflection is fascinating.

A photo scavenger hunt? Too much work for me, but you get an A+.

Great choices, I love your reflection especially.

Great photo's. The reflection in the last one is my favorite, so much texture, it took me a minute looking at it to see what was going on.

A beautiful set of photos. The reflection is awesome - like seeing double.

Nice reflections on that fall walk. A dog's faithfulness is one of life's sweetest gifts. Looks like a wonderful companion.

Such a beautiful selection of images for SHS. I particularly love your first (the dam with lovely Autumn colours), second (faithful... there is nothing like the faithfulness of a dog) and last image (the bridge with Autumn colours and a splendid reflection). Such beauty you have shared here.

These are really great pics. I miss fall so much. It's still so hot here....and you've found yourself a bird whisperer:)
