Vincent Chooses A Pumpkin

After wandering around the pumpkin patch Vincent circled back and found the one he wanted. Dad had to help him carry it out as it was too heavy for him.

Vincent's Pumpkin Hunt

These ones look promising.

Maybe if I look over here.

Perhaps there is one on this side.

Vincent negotiates for a pumpkin that was already on a wheelbarrow, or.

On Saturday, Vincent, Uncle Bob, and Dad went hunting for a pumpkin for halloween. Vincent searched the entire pumpkin patch looking for just the right one. We are still not sure if he found one.

Ruby-Crowned Kinglet

The second species of kinglet the Regulus calendula passed through the beach this week on it's way south. This is most likely a female. These are very small and fast as they flicker from branch to branch.

Thanksgiving

A Happy Thanksgiving.

Someone wants dinner.

We hope everyone had a happy thanksgiving. We shared our dinner with the Pauls feasting on turkey, ham, duck and all the fixings. May the upcoming year be fantastic for all.

Colour of Autumn

The colours of autumn are just stunning at times. These photographs, which do not do justice to nature, were taken late on a sunny afternoon.

Autumn Sumac

The sumac tree turns a brilliant red in autumn. This autumn their colour has been particularily striking as can be seen during our trip to the Scarbourgh bluffs.

Along the Trail with Vincent

Mom joined Vincent and I on Saturday for a couple of hours at the bluffs. Once again the weather was warm and the fall colours were spectacular. Vincent enjoys walking along the trail and beach and playing with anything he can find.
