This morning I went for a walk to clear my head and now I know how a woodpecker speaks and the sound a small magnolia makes when it rustles in the wind. My problems feel a little less significant now.
Trying to be grateful to hear birds so often. There’s a species that came to town recently that is especially chatty early in the morning. The parrots have been around screeching lately, too.
My neighborhood family of deer still visit regularly. The young buck is growing little antler nubbins 🥹❤️
every day since my overgrown lawn has been tamed my resident backyard squirrel runs around, lightly digging and foraging for acorns. it's been a treat to watch him through my office window as he explores!! The chipmunks chatter up in the trees and throw acorns down at my dog because they hate his ass. I love looking up and seeing if I can pinpoint their location in the branches by their sounds it makes me feel so in tune with nature. My father gave me binoculars as a gift before I really had occasion to use them and I need to find them and bust them out…
