Common Nature things -for all places where you lived

[shootingstar]

True that I do notice the trees ...or where I am, the lack of them. However, I live in an area that's alot more trees than other neighbourhoods...which still doesn't compare to the thicker cover, even in the middle of Toronto ,which has a more "lush" greenbelt because of its large swath of ravine parks.

Here, there's a provincial park, protected land within the city...and I can't quite get used it: alot of it is GRASS. It feels wierd to me..like being in a semi-wild..lawn. I am so accustomed to provincial parks as places with a ton of trees/rock.

When I was in VAncouver, I missed the maple trees and other deciduous trees that gave so much autumn colour.
But then B.C., gave back with more lush /bigger trees, flowers, etc....at least along the Pacific coast.

I also notice some differences in birds... I missed seeing the red cardinal, Blue Jay (I realize there are different ones) in southern Ontario.
While along Pacific coast, it's the bald eagle and other similar eagles.

And here, in Alberta..it's the magpie bird with touches of brilliant blue, white and rest black/grey.
