Found this fowl at a local bus stop. It seemed obvious that it had a wing problem of some kind. Not being a veterinarian precluded my figuring the details of its problem.

It wandered off before the bus finally arrived to pick me up, so there was no chance to track down a vet to help.

Wherever it is now, I hope it's well.

Someone's got to be feeding all those birds...

Isn't it cool what you can get out of your camera with the right settings?

Just saying.

Four years ago, we had a women's hockey team in town. It isn't there anymore, although another team's taken its place...but here's some memories of what used to be in Ottawa.

While the other blog gets back into shape...

...there be some good news about the Mayfair Theatre on CBC.ca.

I took in the press conference at Ottawa City Hall re: arts/heritage funding issues this morning, whilst taking care of other business(IE: day-job hunting). Hoping to put up a few photos later on.

More to come...

Started work on the last page of Local Hero # 2 this week, and so far it's been a fun slog. The definition of a "work in progress".
