Beautiful day for a ski yesterday in North Bay! Thanks North Bay Nordic for the beautiful trails! #getoutside #crosscountryski #snow #ilovewinter #ilovesnow #xcski #nordicskiing

Well this is delightful!

Exciting developments in the past couple of days! Kale and tomatoes have sprouted!!! (And yes, I realise I was super late in starting my seeds, but here we are, and I'm excited!) ❤🌱❤ #seedstarting #seeds #tomatoes #kale #growyourownfood #foodgarden #stayhome

I love how the wee tomato seedlings close up their leaves for the night! (First picture at night, second during the day with growlights on.) #seedstarting #growingfood #tomatoes #schoolgarden #gardeningathome #growyourownfood #foodgarden #loveONTfood

Who can help ID this tick? It was fairly large (like 5mm or a bit more). Also found similar ones without the light markings. Central Ontario. (Thankfully it seems they hadn't bitten us yet.) #bugID #ticks #tickID @EntoSpring @EntoLudwick Ask An Entomologist Peter @Entemnein

.eTick Hi! Can you ID this tick? Found in central Ontario (near Washago). About 5mm or a bit longer. We also saw a couple of similar size but without the light markings.

Delving into Estonian science workbooks for my #virtualnaturelessons at our Toronto #EstonianSchool. Love these annual vs biennial plant illustrations and the carrot life cycle drawings! Also love that kids in Estonia learn about #ediblemushrooms in gr 1 and 2!
