Most of the time that I was watching this little branchling, its sibling and their Mother in Fish Creek Park yesterday, all three had their backs turned towards me. Once in a while, I was in luck and managed to catch a glimpse of the front side. I called in again to see them late this afternoon, after my volunteer shift, but all three Great Horned Owls were back in the nest and you could only see one of the youngsters properly. Was out this morning for about two and half hours, botanizing the Upper Plateau of Edworthy Park. Feels so good to finally see an occasional spring wildflower in bloom. Posting so late today: and lack of sleep, plus warmth, bright sun, and unaccustomed exercise have totally worn me out today. Didn't help that a Robin woke me up about 3:30 a.m. this morning (after just one hour of sleep) and then proceeded to sing its little heart out for two hours, outside my bedroom window, until I eventually managed to get back to sleep. When my alarm went off one hour later, it was still singing, lol. Sigh .... Jim (Garnite) - here's a little feathery friend of mine, helping to send lots of warm, fuzzy vibes to you, lots of healing thoughts. Sounds like you are still headed in the right direction. Thinking of you and Linda!
