A good shake helps your mood

Mother Nature brought us a repeat of the sunrises this week.  When the flock flew in the sky had just a hint of gold.  Once the sun crept out from behind the clouds, gold filled the sky.

The birds were the highlight of the morning.  One Legger, the New Peg and an immature herring gull were posing and enjoying closeness.

The herring gull gave himself a good shake after some much needed debugging.  She said, “If you are feeling stressed, I recommend leaning in and giving yourself a good shake. Just like dogs, us birds know how a good shake can make you feel so much better.” 

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Unity makes us resilient

The chatty flock of laughing gulls flew in before the sun came up to greet the day.

The color was muted until the big ball of light came up surrounded by a single cloud. Rays of golden light streamed into the light blue back drop.

2 flocks of red knots flew in at mach speed in perfect unison. As they grabbed breakfast in the salty foam they said, “We bring the message of unity and resilience."

"We fly for miles during our migration. We find if we stick together and fly as one, we are able to go further and with ease.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Flit with lightness

The wind was whipping this morning giving the flock the zoomies, darting off and back in perfect synchronicity.  

When the sun came up from behind the clouds, the shadow behind the clouds looked a bit spooky.  The ocean looked white from the churning ocean. 

Shore birds scurried through the seaweed in search of breakfast while Pelican Highway flew high in the sky using the wind to zip down the beach. 

A dragonfly landed on my camera strap brining us the message today.  She said, “I’m able to flit around bringing the message of joy and lightness.  I also bring the message to be open to change. Just go with the flow and let the transformation unfold.” 

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Everyone has a role

The almost new moon was just a sliver in the sky with a lavender backdrop 30 minutes before sunrise. The streaming gold light was spectacular, filling the air with a hopeful vibe.

Pelican Highway flew in from the north with a vulture in the lineup. Vultures are not the most popular bird but they have a very important message today.

He said, “I’m not a favorite bird but my role is very important in the eco system. I’m here to remind you that you are significant. Everyone has a role to play that supports the bigger picture.”

“I also bring the message of death and rebirth. Much like the new moon I am here to encourage letting go of the old so the new and fresh can begin.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Dive into the unknown

It was dark except for the almost new moon bright in the sky as I walked to the beach. A soft pink glow was on the horizon as I reached the beach.

The almost new moon brings us the message today. “I am here to help you dive into the parts of you that you may have hidden from yourself. Use my energy to bring the hidden aspects to your awareness so you won’t trip over them in the future.”

The osprey diving for breakfast added to the message by saying, "Go ahead dive into unknown, not to worry you will most likely come up with new information to set you free.”

As the sun came up nestled between the clouds rays of orange and gold light streamed out filling the sky with a hopeful vibe.

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Listen to connect

Mother Nature used the swirly paint brush bringing us a Monet like sunrise to start the day. A pastel color palette added to the serene beauty. The almost new moon surrounded by a haze looked soft and sweet in the sky.

The flock flew in early for bath time joined by a flock of royal terns. If you ave ever seen royal terns on the beach, there is usually one talking to her flock mate intensely.

While I watched her chatting up her mate I said, “What are you so passionate about?” As I spoke, she tilted her head listening intently. I really think she was trying to understand.

She brings the message of listening. She said, “Listening is a nice part of relationships. By hearing my flock, it helps create connection and closeness.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Mother Nature used every crayon in the box today starting with a soft pink and lavender morning into a swirly golden glow.

The chatty flock flew in early to get squeaky clean. A different flock showing off their athletic ability sped by in close formation. They bring us the message of tuning in.

They said, “For us to fly as a flock at maximum speed without crashing, it is necessary to be in tune with each other. Knowing where we are in the flock while sensing the pack is how we move as one with ease and grace.”

On the way off the beach a red shouldered hawk was hanging on the roof of the pavilion. She said, “I bring the message of strength, courage and vision. Be open to expanding your awareness by seeing the whole picture. The bird’s eye view really is a powerful tool, It can help you see all the moving parts with clarity.”

Adapt and change to open new doors

As I reached the beach, a soft and salty breeze kept first light feeling sweet as an orange glow filled the sky. 

The chatty flock flew in early slamming not he brakes making their feet fly in every direction.  One Legger looked beautiful hanging in place with the colorful background. 

Surfers played in the perfect waves while Pelican Highway cruised southbound. Shorebirds scurried around looking for breakfast. 

A plover showed up along with a few sand pipers.  The plover looking contemplative said, “I’m here to encourage being adaptable and flexible. Some people say I am also a symbol of good fortune.  As you allow change and adjust to the flow, abundance can come your way.” 

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Color outside the lines

Good Morning!   Ah a sweet and serene sunrise with a calm ocean, light breeze and autumn color palette.  First light brought a gorgeous red sky shifting to a golden glow once the sun came up to greet the day. 

A chatty flock flew in early with the usual Pixar and One Legger leading the way.  Pixar was extra friendly coming up close to say good morning.  The waves were perfect today, calling to the surfers to come play.  While photographing a wave, a solo fish leaped up out of the water just in time to be in the photo.  The fish brings us the message of unexpected fun.  He said, “Be open to spontaneity. Follow your instincts and let yourself color outside the lines.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Charley and M swam into the lagoon with 6 other dolphins and enjoyed a snuggle fest. They were splashing, hugging, jumping, and waving their flippers in the air non stop for over an hour.

Charley left the party for a couple minutes to grab a fish but headed right back in to join in the fun.

The boys were having so much fun yesterday, in between snuggles and hugs they decided to fly. Everyone was catching air, from young to old! Ah the joy and jumping with friends never gets old.

One step at a time

Mother Nature used the autumn color palate this morning bringing us a copper colored sunrise.  The wind took the morning off giving us a calm and serene start to the day. 

A chatty flock of laughing gulls, red knots, sand pipers and ruddy turnstones were at the beach enjoying the beauty.  Pelican Highway was jamming southbound stopping at a rest stop near by for some much needed rest.  

BPX a laughing gull is back again.  I think this is her second winter since her hospital visit.  She walked right up and said, “It’s true, I needed help to thrive.  Now I am doing great!”

An egret grabbing breakfast in the shallows said, “To reach your goal,  lean in and take it one step at a time.”

Self care, a time to connect inward with compassion

Ahhhhh, another beautiful light show sunrise. The pre sunrise was almost void of color then the sun came up from the behind the clouds on the horizon and began streaming gold light.

A chatty and big flock flew in early let by One Legger and Pixar. We enjoyed an extended bath time while we waited for the light show to unfold.

One Legger brings us the message of daily self care. He said, “Self care can be meditative. Enjoy slowing it down while you care for your mind and body. Allowing it to be a sweet time of connecting inward with compassion.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Determination

I'm away from the sunrise today. Yesterday I saw a dozen osprey feeding in the shallows at the beach.

They were so inspiring, diving in the waves to catch snacks. They didn't always grab a fish but that didn't stop them from shaking off the last attempt and going again.

Wishing you a day feeling determined!

harness the energy of Jupiter and moon

A light layer of salty fog was accompanied by a nice breeze rather than whipping wind giving us a sweet and salty sunrise. The flock flew in from the south ready to connect and grab a bath.

The sun came up in space between the clouds bringing warmth and hope for a new day. Once the sun was up it went behind a cloud for a long while creating a cool looking shadow.

Jupiter, the planet of expansion was high in the sky close to the waning moon. Jupiter said, “I’m here to amplify the energy of the moon. The moon wants to help you be let go of what you no longer need while being strong and courageous to follow your hearts try desires. Harness our energy to manifest your dreams.”

Be the hope you want to see

With rain all around, the sunrise was dramatic. Gusts of wind were very strong giving the flock a workout to remain in place.

They said, “When you feel unsteady, imagine rooting into your feet like a redwood. No matter your strength this will make you feel solid.”

The center of the drama was Mother Nature sending out her version of the Batman Light Ray.

The solo but very powerful streaming light ray asks us to embody our inner superhero. “When things are stormy, be the hope. Be the lighthouse, shine your light for everyone to see and watch the magic unfold."

Lean into the resources around you

A pre sunrise sky was almost void of color with just a hint of pink illuminated by the full moon high in the blue sky.

The wind was whipping again today giving us a frenetic feeling to the morning. A very chatty flock flew in early using the wind to hover above said, “We are here to give you a different perspective.

"Sure the wind feels intense but we know if we harness its energy, we can hang in place with little effort. Lean into the resources around you.”

Another gull landed on the beach near me to take in the sunrise. She was sporting her fashionable Florida snow shoes. She said, “When things feel messy around you, I recommend going within to find the quiet. If that doesn’t work, grab your wing mate and enjoy the journey together.”

Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
