Hiking At Pier 4 With My Sister On Victoria Day. 3 Swan Pairs Still On Their Nests Waiting For The Big
Hiking at Pier 4 with my sister on Victoria Day. 3 swan pairs still on their nests waiting for the big day. Mama getting more nesting material. Sad there is so much garbage in the water. #hamont #discoverhamilton #swannest #waitingforhatching #highwater #pollution @capelmau (at Pier 4 - Bayfront)

When wandering around #Supercrawl, be sure to look down various alleys and backstreets for local street art. A lot if creative works. Some are still being painted this weekend. @Supercrawl #hamont #discoverhamilton #artcrawl #artwork #arthamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl #streetart (at Hamilton Supercrawl)
#Supercrawl is still in full swing today on James St N. Be sure to check it out. Lots of fun and wonderful artists represented. @Supercrawl #hamont #discoverhamilton #artcrawl #artwork #arthamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl (at Hamilton Supercrawl)
Canada goose Gosling at Bayfront Park. Mom and dad allowed me to get low and close, and also used my 200mm zoom to get this image. It's small despite the long shadow - nearing sunset. Hot 30+ C day but sunny. A nice simulation of summer. Even had an oldies cruise night next door at Pier 4. #hamont #discoverhamilton #bayfrontpark #canada150 #canadagoose (at Bayfront Park)
Down at Pier 8 for the tall ships. Getting up close and personal. Lots of people. And it's clear, sunny and warm. Happy Canada Day 150. #hamont #discoverhamilton #pier8 #bayfrontpier8 #tallships #tallshipshamilton #canadaday #canada150 (at Pier 8 Skating Rink)
Swan watching over its last egg. I went down to Bayfront Park/Pier 4 to check on the status of the 3 nesting swan pairs in that area. I knew one pair had already abandoned it's nest. I saw that a 2nd pair at the north end of Bayfront had left their nest with 1 egg remaining (out of 6 or 7 originally). This swan was the last hold out at pier 4 near the Leander boat club. It only had 1 egg remaining out of 5. That egg is also likely not going to hatch. All of the swan eggs should have hatched about 3 weeks ago. Too much rain and cold weather early probably caused the eggs to fail. Sad but it happens. Fortunately other pairs around the harbour have been more successful. #hamont #discoverhamilton #bayfrontpark #pier4 #swans #photography (at Pier 4 - Bayfront)

James St N artcrawl. A few local artist friends have some of their work on display in the Hamilton Artists Inc gallery. Nice seeing them getting recognition for their creative talents. #hamiltonartistsinc #hamont #artcrawl #discoverhamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl (at Hamilton Artists Inc.)
Trinidad-style macaroni pie. Hopefully as spicy as it seems and tasty as it smells. #trinifood #macaronipie #trinicomfortfood (at Hamilton, Ontario)
Oh oh... Either someone lost their balloons, or some of the squirrels are having another party and I wasn't invited again. 😔😥🎈🎉 #hamont #lostballoons #squirrelparty (at Hamilton Mountain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCROBevHpal/?igshid=5u06hs2h2rox
