I happened on this duck while walking along the path that goes along the shoreline of the lake
He/she was not interested in me.. simply walked on by.. and down to the water’s edge. Here are some of the other encounters – You can see it was a very peaceful walk, everyone was just lazing about.
Always be aware of the beauty around you. See who is sharing your day with you, maybe not up close and personal, but under the same vast skies, taking in the fresh spring air.. to harmonize with the world around us, is a gift we give ourselves.
Don’t let circumstances sway your decision. It does not help to overthink things. Sometimes we just need to make up our minds and move forward.

This is a conservation area I was visiting, thus the many different wildlife. We re very fortunate here in the area, that we are surrounded by green spaces, and not one, but many conservation park. I am grateful and hold a lot of gratitude in my heart.. that I am able to enjoy the richness of the world around me.
It is mating season, this fellow was not happy with the humans who were in his way. Lol Dan got a picture of him.. and posted it, seems he (this one aggressive male) has been unhappy that so many people are tramping around what he considers his territory. I did see two yesterday at Mer Bleue they were not sitting around, they were off to “somewhere” and in a hurry. They best do what needs doing and then take a vacation and head into the woods away from “strangers” who could wish them harm.
Discover each person’s unique qualities. When we approach people with respect, we can understand them better and see their special qualities

You being bothered with chronic stress, deep exhaustion… to boost your energy any time of day, take a few deep breaths. That is one of the ways to instantly energize your mind and body, Studies have shown that deep breathing a few minutes per day is linked to increased cognitive performance, as well as a significant decrease in stress and fatigue. Worth a try right!!

I was looking at Num’s pictures .. was actually looking for doves … I have been seeing doves at Mer Bleue (NCC conservation area) Doves have been eating with the Blue jays, red wing black birds, and yesterday there were a dozen or so cackles there too. Fewer chickadees, but several groups of finch.. it was cold enough that the ice was solid underfoot, but one an feel the difference in the air, spring weather is here. Up and down, yo yo.. weather.. cold, mild, more cold, you get the drift. Then I saw the owl picture and knew I wanted to share.
At P23 (DewBerry, again NCC land) I was thrilled to see a couple of woodpeckers, they have not been around that much. However for those of you who are interested the white “ferret” has been around, he/she is changing colour..but I have seen him/her scampering through the woods, up, over and under what snow remains on the forest floor.
Also the wee ones are chasing about in great numbers. Where in the dead of winter the squirrels were busy gathering and munching on what they could find, the smaller animals I didn’t see.. but now I see little critters, chipmunks and smaller, scurrying with tails waving in the air behind them…. they seem to be everywhere. Maybe that is why I hear the owl(s) especially if I am there very early. Also its mating season right?…
Yesterday I heard that sexual energy (it was a quote) is one of the strongest drives in nature.. (for creativity and inspiration) Hey.. i was half asleep You Tube Quotes was playing actually I think the series is Kuotes spelled with a K.
Have a great day everyone… Till soon.

The owl is sought out by photographers and birders.. for some reason, they are fascinated by the owl and want to see it, usually he/she keeps hidden and certainly far from humans. It must wonder at the strange behaviour it sees from its perch .. as the two legged beings point and stand for long periods of time focused on him.. content to watch him sleep, and thrilled when he winks or turns his head…. forget the reaction if he stretches and spreads his wings.
I no longer even ask how they manage to get such wonderful shots. I simply accept that it is a gift that we are fortunate they share with us.
Are you overdoing things? Not only do you harm yourself when you overdo things, but you may be imposing on others as well.

The bird appears to be looking in a mirror. How often have I looked in a mirror and wondered at who that was looking back at me. It happens. We all have our own way of seeing ourselves. Sometimes I look but don’t see anything. That happens too. When I am overdoing, “pushing the envelope” I can actually see the “weariness” …. what I am working on is “listening” to what I feel, and see. The cardinal is obviously doing some wondering himself.
Have a great day everyone.
breakfast, yes shrimps are huge.. fresh basil, home made soup, gingered egg, the soup is from Farm Boy ..Hot Pot …
Temperature dipped over night. Yes we went from shorts and balmy to minus temperature with a wind chill factor bringing it to around -20. Clearly someone is not interested in getting out of bed, nor of being all that social at the moment, I think the unintelligent sound/grunt translated to .. go away – go find your computer.. leave the room.. let me be.
It is not fun to be stuck in one place. Instead of being captured by what’s in front of you, strive to broaden your horizons

Time to pull out the winter coat again, it will be cold in the woods.. especially where its open and I’m not in the shelter of the trees.
Unexpected upside of having something happen you didn’t expect. There is always another way of seeing something, or experiencing an event that effectively changes something inside of us. At the time we may not link it to anything in particular, it is when we are least expecting it.. that the “light” will go on, and we will wonder.. how? where? what happened??
For me, nature promotes calm and well being. I can simply get out of my car and stand still (when in the woodlands) . if I’m lucky to have the area to myself, once the birds realize that I’m not going to do anything but enjoy being there with them, the cacophony of sounds begins… the cadence and rhythm of the songs/cries changes as the community regroups and begin going about their daily business,
Make today a memorable day. Let’s try to put our whole heart into whatever we say or do, as our unique signature.

The other morning, I was greeted with a peaceful quiet . as I drank it all in…. off in the deep distance, over the tree tops and through the many layers of tree trunk and branches came the distinct sound of an owl calling/speaking….. Till that moment I had never heard an owl, I was awed.
Be in tune with the feeling of others. Let’s start by trying to understand other peoples’ feelings.

where two energies meet up
We live in a society that obsesses over physical appearance and fitness. This is a good reason, why it is essential to find a way to appreciate and love .. the “me” in all of us.. let’s practice body love and appreciation today.
Ever have a day where it is so busy, you literally miss it, Yes … you lived it … yes it was fun … yes it was positive… but at night as you prepare to lie still .. it comes to you…. you were so busy, you missed it.
You are the result of your daily efforts. Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through.

There are times when circumstances give us momentary moments of angst. It happens, but always, always there IS a solution.
It is interesting because it is difficult. In order to overcome difficulties in your life, you need to think hard and be creative. That is why life is always interesting,
