An art installation called the Continuum by Munich artist Franziska Agrawal on the river trail in Winnipeg. It's part of the Warming hut competition this year. In this image you can see the length of the corridor made of shaped snow doorways as someone walks past.

Nah, it's hyperbole. All play and fun times here. They're buddies housed on the same grounds.
Get in, and check out some boardwalks πΏ

My birth city of Wroclaw, Poland has a beautiful zoo with obviously whimsical creatures π¦π¦π. It's also one of the oldest in Europe and most visited.

We have these cuties in Manitoba as well. Great shot.
Image taken from the frozen Assiniboine River in front of the Forks Market in Winnipeg. Folks skating on the river and others walking alongside on the walking path. The trees are covered in frost. The river trail is a favourite Winnipeg winter activity.
Image taken from the frozen Assiniboine River in front of the Forks Market in Winnipeg showing the walking path which runs alongside the skating trail which is back up again this year. The little evergreen trees that sit along the trail are covered in frost. It's a foggy winter day and the buildings in the distance are fading from the sky.
Winnipeg knows how to have fun during our long and cold winters. The river skating trail is a great reason to get out there and enjoy the season βΈοΈ

Thank you!

How I wish that was our winter... currently watching our first blizzard outside βοΈ
This Polish person says ditto.
It's winter in the forest. A fluffy chickadee sits patiently on the tips of my fingers deciding on the best nut for his next meal. On the menu today are peanuts and sunflower seeds.

Looks like you've had some snowfall up there. We're still waiting for ours in Winnipeg.
A tall section of aurora cascading down towards the horizon in reds and pinks, tipped in bright green
A section of last night's aura moving diagonally towards the upper right, from pinks and yellows at the bottom to greens at the top. You can spot a few stars in the dark sky behind it.
A beautiful ribbon of aurora sweeping the sky in bright green, starting at the bottom left with a wider dark pink section. A few city lights light up the horizon in the distance.

Last night's northern lights were pretty amazing, even within city limits πβ¨

It's worth the drive!
Nopiming Provincial Park in fall, a view from the edge of Bird Lake. Tall stands of evergreens and golden Tamaracks line the distant shore. Images taken before the devastating 2025 wildfire season.
A section of rushing water at Tulabi Falls curves around a cliff of exposed bedrock. The smaller deciduous trees in the foreground have already lost their leaves but evergreens adorn the cliff across the watery divide.
A Canadian Shield outcropping at the edge of Black Lake in Nopiming Provincial Park. The water is very calm on this overcast day.
Where Tulabi Lake turns into Tulabi Falls and starts to descend over boulders of bedrock - one of my favourite spots to stand and listen to the rushing water. Out of frame to the right is a very tall cliff with a stunning overlook point.
Beautiful Nopiming Provincial Park, I hope to see you again soon ππΏπ.
Nopiming suffered from devastating wildfires this year, affecting 124,000+ hectares of forest.
