Yesterday was just a shocking day, even without going out of my way to hear or see any news.
And I wasn't artistic, in the end, so no illustrations to show you.
So the highlight of the day was walking out the driveway, and finding that there was a hawk straight ahead of me on the telephone/power lines. When I crossed the street, and was standing just beneath, I couldn't have been more than ten feet from him (or her?), probably the closest I have ever been to one of these beautiful birds. He didn't move, and I couldn't help myself, as I looked into this striking face, I spoke lovingly and encouraging to him or her. Then, remarkably, beyond the hawk, an eagle flew by!
I have a feeling that one of the only things that may get me through this coming time is awe and wonder at -- and communication with -- nature.
