Time flies. It seems that only recently was March and I was learning how to photograph American avocets in flight. The whole experience was exciting but not very promising and often frustrating.
Looking at these photographs I think how elegant and beautiful these birds were, how excited I was watching them and taking photos.
Things have changed since March. I am not anymore overly excited seeing avocets, I learned to be calm and not to take pictures if these birds far away because the photos would be blur.
Today is July 8th. I open the page of my little book of wisdom "Everyday Mindfulness" and it says:
And now, this is the sweetest and most glorious day that ever my eyes did see.
Hmm, that is a wonderful reminder about daring to see the day glorious and sweetest no matter what was yesterday. It's difficult but I try.
Today my old dog Tasha is still with us and I hope that she would stay with us for a while. Meanwhile, she is sleeping next to me while I am writing. I often say to her,
Tasha, we will take one day at a time. And today will be one of the sweetest and most glorious days because you are still with us.
A moment of life.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful bird play.
Beautiful post and reminder and those photos!! gorgeous. You do have a great "eye" for nature.
ReplyDeleteObservo las fotos muy bien enfocadas y con muy buena definición, a pesar de que las aves están en movimiento.

Pues estas aprendiendo deprisa, porque no es fácil tomar fotografías de aves danzarinas. Y sobre todo obtener tan buenos resultados.
