Life has phases, I trust my process
With wind and rain at the time of the sunrise, Mother Nature brought us a mix of fifty shades of grey, moody blues, pretty in pink with blueberry cream topping to start the morning.
The flock of seagulls flew in using the traffic lane. At first they were in perfect formation but as they approached they had a small pile up. They said, “Not to worry when things feel clogged up, congestion is just temporary, it’s just a matter of time before you feel in the flow again.”
The clouds continued to change colors as the morning progressed leaving a sliver of pink on the horizon. The flock was able to hang in place courtesy of the wind. They were so chatty and adorable as they hung in place. They said, “Use your surroundings to support you. Like a sailboat, we use the wind to our advantage.”
One Legger and Hook got close today showing off their head colors reminding us life has phases. One legger with a speckled head said, “Us birds get our mating colors at different times, I’m not behind because my head isn’t black, my timing is perfect for me. I’m trusting my process.”
Wishing you a cozy and beautiful day friends!

We have the ability to heal and renew
What a sweet start to the day with cozy fog and fluffy clouds feeling like a warm hug. The salty fog felt extra soothing. The pink color show with soft clouds made it feel like a refreshing spring morning.
More of the flock of seagulls have black heads which means they will be leaving soon. One of the gulls stayed after bath time to hang out. She is very soulful being, showing me the sunrise through her eyes. She said, “I find looking at life through the lens of another gives me different perspectives. about life.”
Several starfish were washed up on the beach. Starfish are a symbol of divine love and inspiration. With so many at the waters edge, the message for the day was amplified.
They bring the message of regeneration, and vigilance. They remind us we have the ability to heal, restore and fill ourselves up with what we need.
Wishing you a day of renewal.

Harness your passion to soar
It was raining as I walked to the beach. The mixture of salty fog and rain felt good in my lungs. The ocean was churning with strength. The huge full moon was high in the sky with a sweet pink background.
When the flock of seagulls flew in they surrounded the moon bringing us the message to embrace the energy of the moon. One Legger and Hook were extra chatty, which was nice, it seems like a while since they wanted to connect.
Hook said, “The full moon can amplify our emotions and illuminate patterns for us to see more clearly. This particular moon is asking us to harness our passion, creativity and confidence in a way that supports our heart and journey. Embrace the energy so you can soar even higher.”
Bath time seemed to bring a little romance between a bird couple. They shared kisses and splashes. Really sweet to see the love.
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
Hook saying fly to the moon with me.
Move toward your destiny
The beautiful full moon was setting as the sun was coming up from behind a wall of clouds. The sun was radiating gorgeous golden light beams from behind the mountain shaped clouds, filling the air with a vibe of love and light. The color show stayed simple, with just a splash of gold and pink.
Pelican Highway traffic was light flying closer to the moon than the sun. The flock of seagulls came in just as the sun was peeking through the clouds.
The message today comes from the full moon called the Snow Moon. This full moon is positioned in the sky in a place that asks us to follow what is inspiring and energizing.
The moon is asking us to celebrate our playful and creative side helping us to expand our heart. It reminds us we have the courage and skills necessary to move forward toward our destiny.
Wishing you a creative day!

Trust comes from within
As I walked to the beach I could see the sky was filled with fluffy cotton ball clouds floating across the sky surrounded by soft pastel brush strokes. The sun came up from behind the cloud puffs streaming golden light and warmth. The vibe of the morning was one of hope and serenity.
The very chatty flock flew on time to enjoy our daily debugging. A few skimmers, a solo egret and a flock of sandpipers joined us.
A skimmer brings us the message of the day. Skimmers are pretty shy birds. As I gently got a little closer, instead of running or flying away, the skimmer looked right at me and spread his wings.
He said, “Allowing others to get close comes from trusting ourselves, not the other person or bird. You see, it’s about tuning in and listening to know who we can trust.”
I am always honored when they allow me to hang, connect and photograph their sweet souls. Wishing you a beautiful day with sweet connections.

Use your intuition to know what is real
WEEEEEEEEEE! It was a windy sunrise with 26 MPH gusts with a bit of a chill. The energy was invigorating, feeling like all my cells were waking up with a happy dance. A deep orange glow filled the sky just above the ocean as huge flock of seagulls flew in for bath time.
They were their usual chatty and adorable selves as we hit the waves to get squeaky clean. I know I say this a lot but I love the flock. My heart wants to burst open with how much love I have for them. They bring so much joy and connection with their cute personalities. They remind us love is an energy we can share with everyone.
After sunrise I ran into an osprey hanging out on boat. He said, “I bring the message of listening to your inner Garmin (GPS) to know when something isn’t real. You see, you can trust your gut to tell you when a person, situation or experience feels a little off. I highly recommend listening to your intuition, it really is your superpower.”
Wishing you a day filled with love!
Love to you from the flock

Rainy Day Post
We are having a rainy start to the day so no sunrise this morning. Here are a few photos that didn't make the morning post.
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
Check out the previous post for another Tales from the Lagoon episode.
Tales from the lagoon ~ Episode- Love in the water
Tales from the Lagoon ~ Episode - Love In the Water
So much sweetness today in the water. Momma Jade and her latest baby, along with a couple other moms and their calves came in to grab snacks under the docks.
The adults were slapping the water to get the fish moving while the little nuggets were doing their best to chase the fish with the other adults.
Meanwhile a pelican and a seagull were having an intimate sushi lunch. The pelican was being so patient while the seagull reached over to take a few fish out his beak.
Stay tuned for more tales!
Thank You for sharing your fish
Let go and be free!
The sunrise brought us a sweet pastel sunrise with fluffy clouds soaking up the wider array of colors. Mother Nature speaks the universal language of love and in honor of love this morning a heart appeared in the clouds. Mother Nature reminds us love is state of being and not limited to just romance. It is available to all of us, all the time, just tune in and receive.
Pelican Highway was jamming in both directions, enjoying the perfect waves and light breeze. The bring the message of harnessing the energy in the moment to provide a sense of ease with the journey.
The flock of seagulls were full of joy today, running into waves head first with wild abandon. They were splashing around like little kids enjoying the warm weather and each other. One of them came out of the water and lifted up with his feet out and wings back saying, “Let go! Be free and play!”
Wishing you a day filled with love and play!
A heart in the clouds :)
Share resources for success
Ahhhhhhhh, a gorgeous spring like morning almost no breeze and a calm ocean. Mother Nature used her wispy paint brush this morning, painting the sky with soft pastel brush strokes. The big ball of light came up adding more color to the morning and welcome heat.
The flock of seagulls were extra cute at bath time. We had so much fun getting squeaky clean, they said,”Bathing is way more fun with friends.” We were all surprised when a pelican flying by, slammed on the brakes and joined us for breakfast and bath time. She said, “Be open to the unexpected.”
The seagull flew right over to the pelican with excitement then argued over who got to be his breakfast buddy. They eventually worked it out that they would both hang out with the pelican.
They bring us the message of compromise. They went on to say, “We know sharing our resources is the best way for us to survive. It’s true, we squabble a lot but in the end we know working together helps us all.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
He’s mine. :)
Embracing the cycles of life
Yippppeeeeeeee!
The sun came out to shine bright this morning. The air was crisp and chilly with a yummy salty layer of fog hovering above the ocean. The flock of seagulls flew in hot and chatty at their usual time.
One of the seagulls flew in super fast, slammed on the brakes by throwing his feet out and opening his wings so he changed directions on a dime. He said,”Be open to changing directions, in a way that might surprise you. Flexibility brings ease and abundance.”
Tiger the Hermann’s gull came in late. His energy is so strong I felt him before I saw him. He reminds us to step fully into our personal power, using our confidence to make an entrance.
One of the other gulls with an almost black head said, “Us birds roll with the rhythms and cycles of life. You see, when our heads turn fully black, that means we are ready to mate and will be leaving sunny Florida to head north. We encourage embracing life cycles as a way to feel happy and boost your immune system.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
Together, open and ready

Expand your awareness
Mother Nature brought us a Florida winter sunrise with overcast skies and a moist chilly breeze. The ocean was churning with white caps contrasting the moody bluesy sky.
It was an amazing bird morning starting with Tiger, Hermann’s gull from California having breakfast with 2 pelicans. Tiger reached over and pulled the little fish right out of the pelicans beak. He brings us the message of thinking outside and box.
Tiger stepped out of the water and chatted with me for a long while. As he reached down to pull a bug off his chest he said,”It’s important not to let the bugs stay on my heart. You see if they build up it’s harder to stay open.”
About that time the flock of seagulls flew in wings and hearts open saying, ‘YES! Open your heart to receiving love.”
After sunrise I ran into 2 falcons! How exciting! They said,”We bring the message of sitting in your power. Positive opportunity and changes are available, be in the moment ready for quick action.”
One of them turned his head the opposite direction of his body saying, “Look in every direction to how how to take action moving forward. It’s best to be centered in the moment while expanding your awareness to see opportunities all around.”
Wishing you a wonderful day friends!
Wings and hearts open to receive love
Turn fears into your strengths
We are having another overcast moody blues kind of sunrise. I decided to share photos from last year February to share a little sunshine in your day.
I’m sharing a sweet baby shark as our messenger. This sweet shark was caught by a fisherman who brought him in, unhooked him, gave him a kiss then released him with gentle care. The fisherman reminds us how we can be kind even when something might be scary or feel threatening.
The shark reminds us to take action toward our goals. He said, “Keep swimming…..moving forward. When you feel uncertain, keep your focus on your strengths. Shifting your perspective can help you turn your fears into your strengths.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Tales from the lagoon ~ Friendships
Tales from the Lagoon~ Episode -Friendship
What of the things I love the most about hanging in the lagoon is seeing the friendship that develop.
A few days ago, I had the pleasure of hanging with several pelicans while they were grabbing teeny fish. One seagulls joined in and attached himself to one of the pelicans. The pelican was extremely patient and shared a few fish with his little friend.
The dolphin I call Danika stopped by to grab snacks and connect. She did her usual speed racer action to grab a few mullet. We had some nice quality time together just relaxing in the sunshine. I’m grateful for the friendship.
Stay tuned for more tales!

Utilize the wisdom of your past
With a heavy layer of moist fog and overcast skies, the morning was practically in black and white. The hint of color came from the sea oats and wildlife. As my feet hit the icy water, the flock of seagulls came flying in hot and chatty!
Pelican Highway traffic was light with a few stopping to grab snacks close to shore. They bring the message of diving in with grace. As the pelican turned to prepare to dive he said, “Go ahead, dive in, what do you have to lose? If you miss the fish, you just dive again. Besides, diving is half the fun!”
After sunrise a turtle was floating by the dock. She looked up and said, “I bring the message of walking your path in peace. Pace yourself so you can stay the course. I’m also a symbol of ancient wisdom, encouraging you to utilize the wisdom of your past to stay emotionally strong and determined.”
Wishing you a cozy day friends!

Rest and flow
We are having another overcast sunrise this morning. For our morning post I mixed together a few recent sunrise and sunset photos bringing the message of rest and going with the flow.
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!

Love fest at sunset
We are having a fifity shades of grey morning so thought I’d share the sunset from last night. It was Friday night date night in the lagoon at sunset and loads of sweet fun!
3 dolphins, Danika and 2 friends started off the evening with some affection including sweet kisses and hugs. Since it was date night, the dolphins and pelicans were grabbing fish together, ah, a lovely sunset sushi date.
The 3 dolphins left for about 20 minutes. Danika returned to spend some quality time with me. We hung out together watching the sun disappear for another day. Just a reminder the dolphins choose to interact, it is always on their terms.
They bring us the message that sweet love and connections come in many forms. Love is more than romance. Love is all around, just tune your inner radio station to receive the signal and see what shows up.
Wishing you a loving day friends!

We can get through the fog together
With little breeze to move the fog along, the cool thick mist hung over the shore line giving us a very cozy sunrise. The color show was black and white until the sun came up blasting the fog with a golden shower.
The fog and sunlight encourage us to let the light burn through any fog we feel lifting the heaviness, not to worry clarity will come.
The flock of seagulls were so darn cute today, their little personalities coming through. One of them said as she was giving herself a good shake, “Go ahead, shake off the stress so you can enjoy the weekend.”
I was invited to a post sunrise sushi rave with the pelicans. A few seagulls were in the mix working the relationship to get breakfast too.
As I was watching a pelican and laughing gull grab snacks, from out of the blue, Tiger, the Heermann’s gull flew in full of moxie! The laughing gull feeling the intensity flew away quickly. The pelican had quite the look of surprise on his face.
They bring us the message of being open to unexpected joyful people and events. Out of the blue connections can be fun and exciting.
Wishing you a day full of light!

Wanna share?
What the heck?! said the pelican
Easy does it and a rescue
With a light layer of cool misty fog hanging over the shore, the energy of the morning was soft and sweet. The flock of chatty seagulls flew in at the usual time.
When the sun came up it looked like it was being squished between the ocean and the clouds. He sun said, “Sometimes, our perspective can be distorted, if you feel confused, step back and wait for clarity.”
The flock enjoyed bath time and added to the message saying, “One step at a time, nice and easy, no need to rush.”
A pod of dolphin cruised by after sunrise, they were enjoying a leisurely pace. They said, “Island time is a real thing. Take it easy, relax into the moment and soak in the wonder all around. Not to worry, you will accomplish everything on your list."
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
After sunrise we had a bird rescue 911
The sunrise crew came together again to save this little nugget. A team of kind hearted people working together!
A sunriser couple spotted him in distress, another sunriser made the call for help, another sunriser picked up the bird and took it to a the initial sunrise couple for transport to the hospital. Great teamwork!
I love our sunrise crew!
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
One step at a time, nice and easy
Rest into your strengths
Mother Nature used every crayon in the box today! The wall of clouds soaked up the mixture of colors giving us an awe inspiring, breathtaking start to the day. A layer of salty fog hung over the shore adding to the serenity vibe.
One legger and her crew flew in hot and chatty. There is something about One Legger and her power poses. She brings the message of strength especially in the midst of adversity. She said, “Rest into your strengths to give you the confidence to stay the course, you are stronger than you know.”
The skimmers were also active again today. One flew by grabbing snacks and said, “Melt deeper into the moment so things slow down around you. When you are grounded and open, that’s when the magic happens.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
