Ornamental corn
It's Thanksgiving already - here in Canada, the second Monday in October. The actual feasting may occur on Saturday, Sunday or Monday, but here in Ontario - not true in all provinces of Canada - Monday is a statutory holiday.
Wild turkey
Even though it's a long weekend, it feels short...but all weekends feel short, don't they? Many are traveling to visit with family, see fall foliage or even bird watch. I know for a fact that the wild turkey above would prefer to be bird watched than er...cooked and eaten.
Pumpkins still in the field
Most of the harvest is in, although I did notice a couple of days ago that many Halloween pumpkins are still in fields waiting...
Last Saturday, pick-your-own pumpkins
to be chosen.

You, turkey, fly away.

ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving...
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful morning in Guildwood right now.
It is special day for us too..
I am grilling white fish from Lake Huron on cedar planks for dinner, considered 'Ocean Wise' according to our Vancouver Aquarium program.
Earlier this year we watched wild turkeys feeding below our bird feeder. Our cat was stunned:)
Wish you a wonderful day,
Gisela
I hope you all had a nice holiday with friends and family and plenty of food on the table.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving. Turkey's look better with all their feathers on don't they? Hope he is still wandering happily along somewhere.

i have never seen a field of pumpkins and this one is beautiful. i noticed on Saturday at our Walmart, a large pumpkin was 8 dollars and my sister in law said they are 10 where she is in Ga... i love the shadow on the pumpkin, made me think of the frost is on the pumpkings, but yours is shadows and that corn is the prettiest i have ever seen and that is a SUPER SHOT
ReplyDeleteGreat photos for this holiday! What a nice shot of the wild turkey. Enjoy this day.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of your holiday! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Do you ever call your hubby, "Pumpkin"?
ReplyDeleteIf not, try it sometime. Or not. :)
Happy Thanksgiving and the photos are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGreetings, RW & SK
such great fall scenes. hope you and yours have had / will have a great thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteWhy not pick on something else? The bird is probably wishing turkey were NOT the food of choice during all the important occasions from Christmas to Thanksgiving. The pumpkins are certainly plentiful and advanced far further than in the west it seems. :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, thanks for clearing that up for me. Whew! Thought I was really out of it there. Great set of photos. I don't think I can come up with anything as close for when our day arrives.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of autumn. Your Thanksgiving is very festive. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you for you nice compliment! I am getting to be known as the gal around town in the hot (pink) pants. LOL
ReplyDeleteWe had one big dinner yesterday and are off to another today! And more pumpkin pie!! Love the pumpkin patch pic.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving! Nothing like a trip to a pumpkin patch.
ReplyDeleteJust catching up with your posts since I last visited awhile ago. Your photos are all great as usual, but this time I especially enjoyed the ones from Algonquin.

ReplyDeleteBuddy is a crazy man....and he is not getting any better. What a cool place for running thru the mts in the rain. Will post more next week. Love your corn. I need to get some. And that turkey is magnificent. I saw a family of wild ones on the drive up to the race one day and the next a family of raccoons. g
