In Flight
November Weeds & Wildflowers Writing Prompt
Before I get into the prompt, I want to acknowledge Lisa Bolin as the photographer for our November Weeds & Wildflowers banner. That golden field certainly reflects the season of autumn, don’t you think? Thank you, Lisa, and thank you, LucianoSphere, for our October banner.
My sweet friend Louise Peacock, who has been filling in for me as Editor of Weeds & Wildflowers, sent out a call for tributes to Captain Argentina and me to brighten our days during some difficult times. She mentioned the things I love — raindrops, birds, sunsets, and sunrises.
The same day she published that post, I was walking Syau and caught this Snowy Egret in flight. I rarely get shots of birds flying. This one was pure luck.
And yesterday I received a text from one of Ben’s daughters thanking me for the book Bird Therapy by Joe Harkness because it turned her into a birder. She joined a birding group in her NJ city and recently went on her first birding excursion.
And my friend Gina asked what I wanted to do on my fast-approaching birthday and I said — let’s go on a birding road trip! No surprise there.
