Create balance to handle the energy of new starts
Mother Nature brought us a moody blues meets pretty in pink kind of sunrise. As the sun came up from behind the cloud wall a rainbow appeared in the light filled sky bringing us a heart expanding start to the day.
The almost new moon and Venus were close together having a conversations about fresh starts. Together they are conspiring to bring us the energy of new beginnings. They ask us to let go and make room for new relationships and beginnings that support our well being.
One legger and the flock flew in chatty using the wind to hover and connect while a royal tern grabbed breakfast and flew in to the rainbow.
The tern said, “Abundance is all around, stay open and receive all the blessings coming your way.”
And if that wasn’t enough, a mocking bird wanted to have a lengthy conversation.
As she was doing a yoga pose to enhance balance she said, “To navigate the energy of the new moon, create balance in your body. Inner balance will give you strength to handle anything that comes your way.”
Wishing you a rainbow kind of day!

Look for the channel markers to guide you
Mother Nature brought us another wintry kind of sunrise keeping it dark and cozy. The breeze was both warm and cold when the flock flew in before the sunrise.
Channel markers bobbed in the ocean illuminating the path for boaters and bringing us one of our messages. They remind us to look for the markers lighting the way, showing us the path, especially when the road seems rough.
A huge fluffy cloud right over the sunrise soaked up the pink and blue colors looked like a a massive heart or angel wings. What do you see?
After sunrise I ran into an immature night heron blending into the mangroves. He was very quiet and still bringing us the message of knowing when to blend in and when to stand out. He said, “Trust your intuition to know when to come out and when to stay in. Not to worry, you will know.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Focus on your strengths
Ahhhhh, sunrise had the feeling of fall today with cooler temperatures with a refreshing breeze blowing the tops of the waves.
Pelican Highway looked gorgeous all lined up floating over the salt spray in the waves surrounded by the pastel color show.
The chatty flock led by One Legger flew in hot with their little legs flying in all directions. They used the wind to hang in place for a long time so we could connect.
One Legger is a very positive gull with so much resilience, strength and beauty. She has a personality that makes her stand out, she loves to engage and connect.
She brings us the message saying, “Focus on your strengths, embrace the qualities that make you feel solid and powerful. We all have them, once you know what they are, I highly recommend showing them off!”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
Remember anything is possible
Wow! Mother Nature used the soft fluffy clouds to soak up the amazing color show. The morning started out with a dark purple, changing to pink ending with vibrant orange and golden glow.
The very chatty flock of gulls flew in for our bath and connection time. Pelican Highway traffic flew in both directions using the breeze and waves to float down the beach.
A rainbow appeared after sunrise bringing us a hopeful vibe and the promise of a magical day.
A little warbler (I think) greeted me at my stairs after sunrise. She was quite chatty and a good listener. When I asked her questions she tilted her head to understand. She said, “I bring the message of expecting unique relationships and connections.”
She went on to say, “I have a beautiful voice bringing peace and healing to all who can hear me. The rainbow and I ask you to remember that anything is possible, stay open and know things are lining up behind the scenes for you.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
Connection can restore your battery
A light rain started as I was walking to the beach. Although the rain wasn’t hard it was a little too much for the camera so after snapping a few I thought I’d mix up the sunrise with the sunset dolphin photos from last night.
Last night several dolphins were in and out of the lagoon. Jagger and his best male buddy stayed the longest enjoying dinner for two and a beautiful sunset.
Jagger and his bestie said, ‘We bring the message of connection. Connection comes in many forms, sometimes it’s a bestie, other times it’s connecting to nature and the beauty. Both can restore your battery.”
Wishing you a day with sweet moments!
Splash it up going after your heart’s desire
Raindrops keep falling on my head…. With pink rain, fluffy clouds and wind the sunrise was full of drama. The big ball of light is back! The sun came up hugged by the surrounding clouds bringing warmth and filling the sky with a golden glow.
The chatty flock flew in to say hello and enjoy bath time. Pelican Highway traffic was heavy heading southbound.
Several osprey were hanging in the thermals looking for breakfast. One female came to grab breakfast in the shallow water. She said, “I’m here to encourage going for it! Whatever your heart desires, don’t hold back, dive in!”
“I don’t always catch my fish but diving in is half the fun. And I highly recommend making a big splash! Right?! Are you with me? Let’s splash it up and go after our heart’s desires.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Embrace your passion and chase your goals
The smoke is still hanging around giving us a muted and soft sunrise. The wind whipping the flock flew in and was able to hang in place courtesy of the wind.
Waves churned toward shore like a washing machine adding to the vitality vibe of the morning.
2 osprey engaged in a high speed chase over breakfast while Pelican Highway floated down the beach high in the thermals.
A pod of dolphins came into the lagoon for breakfast after sunrise.
They said, “We believe in community as a way to thrive. Find time to play with your pod, it will elevate your mood. And go get those goals! Embrace your passion and chase after your dreams.”
Wishing you beautiful day friends!

Kisses and hugs
We had an eerie sunrise with smoke from Canada muting the sunrise. Huge clouds, a wall of rain and smoke gave us an almost grey and white start to the day.
I thought photos of hugs and kisses in nature would be more uplifting to start your day.
Wishing you a day filled with love!

Be Vigilant go after your passion
I didn’t expect to see a sunrise when it was raining just a few minutes before I headed to the beach. Mother Nature did not disappoint with huge clouds, rain all around, rays of sunrise streaming from behind the clouds, and a rainbow!
The vibe felt inspiring with waves churning and wind blowing. The chatty flock was already waiting when I arrived. For several minutes I was immersed in the flock enjoy closeness and connection.
On the way off the beach I saw a peregrine falcon high in the sky hanging in the thermals with 4 osprey. He brings us the message of being vigilant, go after your passion to find your life’s purpose.
“I’m also here to let you change is coming so keep the bird’s eye view. Your knowledge and vision will know exactly how to seize the opportunities.”
Then a rainbow popped up near the lighthouse, encouraging us to keep the hope alive. Look for the signs like the lighthouse to guide you along your path. You got this!
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Let go to find Balance in relationships
Mother Nature used all the elements, lightning, fog, a full moon and a unique sunrise to bring us a dramatic start to the day.
At first light, peek rays of light jetted into the blue sky as the moon peeked out of the clouds for a minute before being covered up again.
This full moon brings us the message of finding balance in our relationships with others and the relationship with ourself.
The moon said, “Use my energy to find equilibrium with your independence and relationships. This is a powerful time to ensure your oxygen mask is on first before serving others. The stronger you are, the better you will be for others.”
One of the gulls added to the message by saying, “Pull out the old feathers you have been holding onto. It’s time to make room for the new!”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

And let them go
Fog is just temporary
Mother Nature brought us a cozy and dark with a layer of fog gently floating by keeping the clouds hidden for a long time.
The fog absorbed the pastel colors while the flock flew in with their wings and hearts open. They said, “Even when things are dark, stay open and trust things are lining up to support you.”
Our message comes from the fog. It said, “I hang around until enough light breaks through and I dissipate. If you feel foggy, not to worry, it is just temporary, eventually I will burn off and you will see clearly.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
Catching a rainbow is possible!

Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode - Lunchtime Play with Good Friends
Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode - Lunchtime Play with Good Friends
Two male dolphins, Charley and M came into the lagoon today to enjoy a mullet lunch and loads of playtime.
These 2 guys are best friends and always so much fun. They love to engage and play to the camera which adds to the fun.
They were either flying out of the water catching mullet or speeding after them at mach speed. They were also enjoying tossing around mangrove seeds.
At one point 4 other dolphin came in for just a few minutes, they all playfully rolled around for a few minutes before the 4 left.
Charley and M continued to fish and play after the others left. When it was time to go Charley came over close to say goodbye and off they went. I posted a Reel with Charley saying see you later.
Stay tuned for more tales!

Stand tall by conquering your fears
Mother Nature used the soft pastel color palette this morning along with a cloud city and warm breeze the morning was extra serene. The sand was still wet from the rain overnight.
Rays of light streamed into the sky from behind the clouds on the horizon. The chatty flock flew in with a message of flexibility.
They said, “We recommend being flexible. You see, going with the flow ready to change directions quickly is how we grab our goal.”
After sunrise Luna the Osprey was standing tall on a fake owl. She said, “I’m here to remind you to conquer the deterrents on your path with confidence. I’m certain overcoming your fears will help you feel proud of yourself."
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Lean into you for a solid foundation
Ahhhh, Mother Nature brought us another other worldly kind of sunrise with huge clouds and a rainbow of colors from start to finish.
At first light one of the clouds looked like Nessie the Loch Ness Monster sitting on the glow of the impending sunrise. Pink rain streamed from the clouds adding to the beauty.
A chatty flock of gulls and scurrying sand pipers were enjoying the morning as well.
Piper the sand piper brings us the message of loving the one you are with. She said, “Lean into your own reflection with love and compassion. You see, loving yourself giving you the best foundation to feel solid and steady no matter the chaos happening around you.”
Within you day filled with love!
PS~2024 calendars arrive on October 4

Relax into alignment
The pre sunrise sky filled with a rainbow of cloud ribbons intertwined creating a beautiful landscape to start the morning.
A chatty and huge flock was already at the edge of the ocean when I arrived. One Legger showed off her beauty in a silhouette with the colorful backdrop.
When the sun came up it looked like there was a subtle green flash as the sun kissed the ocean good bye for he day. A green flash is an optical phenomenon that can be seen near the upper rim of the sun during sunset or sunrise.
Spot the egret flew by in perfect form bringing the message of alignment. He said, “To fly with the great ease, I need to be streamlined with my posture. When I am in alignment, I am able to reach my destination with little effort. Relax into alignment with your goals and let the energy carry you.”
Wishing you a groovy day friends!

Lift each other Up to thrive
Weeeeeeeeeeee the wind was whipping with temperatures in the high 60’s! The sun was visible again and brought a lovely golden glow when it came up between clouds.
Despite a churning ocean, surfers were out looking like speckles bobbing around like buoys. Sparkly salt spray lifted off the waves courtesy of the wind adding to the ambiance of the morning.
Powerful rays of light jetted into the sky at first light when the flock flew in with their tiny feet flying out to the side as they slammed on the brakes.
2 of the gulls together bring us the message of lifting each other up. They said, “Sure we squabble and compete for food but in the end we know lifting each other up is not just how we will survive, but how we thrive.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
