A gift to be seen

Another beautiful day in paradise with a very calm ocean and light breeze. The cloud formation looked like a city on the horizon. The growing flock of seagulls flew in extra chatty and full of acrobatic moves.

The bring the message of keeping your wings and hearts open to lift each other up. I’m happy to say some of our regular seagulls are retuning for the winter. I saw One Legger today and she was circling like a champ! Hope to see Hook, Tiger and Peg soon.

After sunrise I spent time with the female osprey who hangs on the boat overlooking the lagoon. When I approach wildlife I always ask if it is ok and I take my sunglasses off so they can see my intentions through my eyes.

This sweet osprey was very engaging and playful, a first for me. I asked her how she was and she said, “My foot hurts a little but I’m doing good overall.” She went on to look at me through her toes and from each side, each look her eyes softened, knowing I wasn’t going to cause her harm. She even seemed to play peek a boo through her toes. She’s a funny girl.

She said, “I bring the message of eye contact to connect with each other. Even from a distance you can have closeness through your eyes. I know it can feel a bit vulnerable, but it is a gift to truly be seen.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
