Sweet dreams.
The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone on my walks here in Montreal. Here is a squirrel foraging in a park. Note the shadows from the trees in this picture. You can click on any image to see a larger view.
Here I called the squirrel and as soon as he looked up at me I got this photo of him. He kind of posed for me. :) I wasn't out for long because it was pretty hot and humid that day, but this little guy brightened my day by posing for my photo. :)
These are signs that the city of Montreal puts in designated areas not far from schools and at stop signs reminding motorists to slow down and pay attention.
The sign is in French, and the English translation is: "Attention to our children!" The signs work, as it makes the motorists more vigilant, not just for the children, but anyone wanting to cross the street at the stop sign intersection!
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done in Europe! Enjoy! :)
