Wildlife

Although there isn't much wildlife to be seen in the winter, we did find these mountain sheep.
As you can see, the ram is busy licking the salt off the road. Unfortunately, he's enjoying his treat on a bend in the middle of a highway.
We found a herd of wapati grazing near 6th Bridge.
A female elk.

Saskatoon

Early morning on 4th Avenue while stopped at the lights.

Coffee

All that remains of the best latte in the city.

Pest Hill

Nearly everyone I know from home spent some quality time on this hill in winter.

Saskatoon

Winter sunrise in Saskatoon, about 8.00 a.m.
The dogs in motion on the back landing.

Calgary

The winter wonderland that is Calgary International Airport. The bluriness of the photo is a testament to my jet lag.

Reading in the Cam

While reading in the Radcliff Camera, I thought I'd take a sneaky picture. It's easily the most beautiful library I've ever been in, although the desk where I was working looked pretty scruffy. And after 4.30, I think the heat switched off. Even though I was in the upper reading room, it was very, very cold.

Later on that evening, Matt came up to Oxford and we went to see Mitchell and Webb in performance. It was good fun, and the best part was the warm theatre!

Signage

It wasn't. Not even a little bit.

Guy Fawkes Day

Fireworks going off everywhere. It was the same last night. Unfortunately, the sound gets annoying after awhile.

This picture was taken in the afternoon on my way home from the station in Christ Church park, near Caversham and Reading.
