They are preparing the gardens at the old city hall for winter.
I think those are irises beneath the snow fencing. They have some lovely very dark purple irises that I enjoy every time I walk by in the early summer.
We took a turn around the park this afternoon and it was a real pleasure to walk into the park and see a bright kite flying.
It was a windy day and pretty cold - about 3C. The kite was initially tethered to the children's play structure at the edge of the park but later, we watched the kite flyer walking across the park with kite in tow.
It always looks better the real life but I snapped this photo anyway, when an airplane crossed the sky right where the kite was.
The geese were out in force today. You'd think they'd be seriously packing their bags to head south.
Instead, they were swimming in line in the pond (I think that is a dog collar on the post),
pooping everywhere - look at those poop logs!
and walking in several different directions at once. One group finds something interesting over the hill and another group heads for the pond. All with deliberation.
We noticed that a section of the metal chain link fence was missing over at the construction site and some orange plastic fencing has been put in its place. You always wonder if someone stole the fence or what happened to it.
