For the Fairies





Today I visited Kakabeka Falls a spectacular site where legend has it that Greenmantle, princess of the Ojibwa tribe allowed herself to be taken hostage by the Sioux, in return for sparing her life she promised to lead the Sioux warriors to her father's camp. She led them by canoe along the river and diverting to the shallows at the last moment the unsuspecting Sioux in the following canoes were swept over the falls to their deaths.

These pictures were taken using the camera on my phone and when I return home I will have more shots to share. 

The visit to the falls was followed by a forest trail and along the way I spotted the little fungus growing in the shade, a perfect spot for fairies if you ask me...
