The Serenity of Swans – Day 95

This morning on my way to photograph an osprye nest replacement platform that Eversource utility built for the ospreys (long story)…

I saw a flash of white, by the bridge at Herring River.

I simply had… to stop.

Perhaps I was in need of some beauty…

Or perhaps, a little peace.

In any case, I am so very glad I took the time, to look upon this stunning creature.

How we do need to see “the Beauty”, in a world filled with far too much of “the ugly’.

It’s a new day, tomorrow, and a new chance to look for that Beauty, again.

‘Night all. ❤

Mute Swan Meditation

Even with the crummy, waning light that day, I was thrilled at the sight of this pair of Mute Swans.

I don’t know if there are any beings more graceful…

Or more connected to each other.

Seeing them always fill me with such a calm.

I felt grateful to be in their presence.

At peace.
