Mom and I at the Leaf #assiniboinepark
A gravel walkway with stone edging winds through a forest of tropical plants inside an indoor biome.
A large, curved wall covered in several thousand live plants.
Looking down onto a curved walkway among tropical plants lit by the late afternoon sun. Three people stand on a bridge crossing a small indoor pond.
A four-story waterfall streams into a pond surrounded by tropical plants. The area is lit in a purple and green glow. The plastic roof of the biome can be seen curving around the top of the image.
Here are a few photos of the inside. It's a pretty spectacular place. #Winnipeg #AssiniboinePark

Day three and it seems to be repetitive
But eagles seem to be everywhere we are
Today they were quite vociferous
Diving from the trees
Toward the Assiniboine River
And to keep one grounded
Some deep rich colourful flowers

If one needs to be inside
Let the lilies greet you with their perfume
And the butterflies fragility remind you of the state of the world and the resilience of life beyond that of what we know
Thankful for this dome of wonder

Quiet, and surprisingly cool, morning at The Leaf before heading out to pick up Gdpa from the hospital.

On a rainy cool day it would make sense to stay home, curl up with a good book. Or one could go to The Leaf and see nature unfolding and be inspired to go to a nursery to pick up one or two additional plants.

Snail on stem of flower
Agapanthus lily, white with purple highlights
Red Bougainville
Madagascar Jasmine, Stephanotis Floribunda, aka Hawaiian Wedding Flower
Signed a warrant against this snail when we enquired what purpose they served in the Mediterranean zone at The Leaf. Apparently they come in with the plants and can be destructive. No other snails were seen but the flowers and pedestrian traffic were perfect.

There are so many things people are waiting for. Spring, stability, sustainability . . .

Mom and I at the members preview night for the new display in the one Biome at the Leaf #assiniboinepark
A while ago, I went to the zoo. So of course I came home with an abstract-ish photo of a leaf.
Iβm weird that way. But Iβm reasonably sure this is a surprise to precisely no one.
