The start of a beautiful day
Since I promised more and shorter posts, I will keep today's post very short. But I just wanted to share this captivating moment with you. I took this photo this morning, just outside Ottawa. It was already warm, and today will be a hot day.
I love this small lake and its perfect reflection of the trees in the water. Then, add the sounds of dozens of birds, all singing their own songs. It was a beautiful moment to start the day.
Yesterday, like every Thursday at 3 p.m. Eastern Time, I co-hosted a podcast with Alister Doyle. We spoke about the report launched this week by the World Meteorological Organisation, stating that there is a 50:50 chance of average global temperature reaching 1.5 degrees Celcius above pre-industrial levels in the next five years.

Soon, I will start 20 weeks of traveling; I will only be back in Ottawa by late September. I will continue to share my writing and photos, and my posts will often be about what I saw and experienced.
If you take a subscription to this newsletter, you can virtually join my travel via this newsletter and you support my writing and my journey.

And if you missed this short video that's making the rounds on social media, take a few seconds to look at this. Many people retweeted it with the hashtag "kindness matters." Indeed it does, and if animals care for each other, I believe that is an extra reason for us to care for them.

(I would like to give credits, but I don't know who made or first published this video, I can't trace it back after so many shares.)
That looks like a perfect start to your day. What a beautiful spot. Thanks for sharing. Love that video as well. Have a lovely weekend.
Lovely photos and lovely start to the day complete with a chorus.
You’re right. Canada seems to have bypassed Spring and gone directly from Winter to Summer.
Hopefully, your European Summer will be more comfortable.
