Flock together to thrive and survive

Mother Nature used her moody blues and pretty in pink color palette this morning. With wind, moisture and cool temperatures, it was a bit chilly.

The flock of gulls were already waiting when I reached the water’s edge. They were huddled together for warmth. A flock of skimmers in tight formation flew by on their way to breakfast.

Tiger the Heermann’s gull from Baja was in the flock of laughing gulls along with a few herring gulls, a few ruddy turnstones and sand pipers. They bring us the message this morning of community.

They said, “We are all a little different but we find when we flock together we have something in common, survival. We know we are stronger together. Together, we can stay warm and safe. When we fly as a group, we help to carry each other while making our work load feel lighter.”

A shout out to my internet company who was at the gate before sunrise to thaw and restore the frozen internet! THANK YOU!

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Stay tuned for photos from an epic wildlife holiday party!
