TODAY'S
PHOTO -
a Least Bittern in Wakodahatchee Wetlands contemplating,
"What's ahead," or so I am personfiying
it to start the week.
I featured Least Bitterns last month and, therefore,
was going to pass this by for today. Then the patterns
of the reeds caught my attention, as well as the
hold the bird has on the read. Note how one of the
right claws curves around the branch. Fascinating
to me.
In looking at the photograph, I get the feeling
that the reeds could be representing lots of barriers
and yet the least bittern is not concerned. There
is an opening there that is more than adequate,
requiring nothing on his part to create it larger.
He's simply resting there with an easy grip on what's
available for him to
stand upon. When he's ready he'll simply fly off
exposing the patterns of his body which are so beautiful
in flight.
SELF-REFLECTING QUERY
-
I invite you to pause and contemplate your week.
Where can you/do you securely stand? Where are the
openings through which you can fly and show your
beautiful self?
Create a rich and energizing week for yourself and
the others in your worlds.
MORE BLACK-BELLIED WHISTLING DUCKS
This weekend I saw one, then yesterday two,
adorable black-bellied whistling ducks in Wakodahatchee.
Because of their size, I think that they are young
ones. They are so cute that I did want those of
you interested to see them. Click on Whistling
Duck Pair. Enjoy.
