Hidden safely among the branches to sleep the day away this Black crowned night heron is perfectly framed by the live oak branches. Tell tale signs of poop are on the walkway below, but only those who know his sleeping spot can find him.
I am in charge of how I feel today.

Things seem more believable today than yesterday. But still be wary of “facts” presented on social media. 😉
I can harness positive emotions
to create a deeper good.
End struggles, find common ground or solutions, reach agreements, compromise, cooperation, peace and harmony.

Happy April 1st, or better known as April Fool’s Day. This year it is also Easter Monday. A government holiday as most stores are open, but you can’t mail anything nor can you go to the bank. 😉
I speak my truth but always
respect the truth of others.
Go in assertive and in full armour. Ride in on your high white horse, full of energy. But be careful of others and their quest.
If you don’t take a chance

My last walk through Zephyr Park yesterday for this season, maybe forever. It was windy, the water levels are really low and there wasn’t a lot of different bird species there. The wind caused an osprey to almost stand still as it was trying to fly over the water. It was a great opportunity for me to capture it’s image and get wonderful details for the photo I used in today’s quote.
I also ran into the couple from Woodstock. It was so good to see them again.
I celebrate life and cherish
my friends and family.
Fantasy is like an idealized reality,
~ R. A. Salvatore
and the core of fantasy
is the one person can make a difference.

but we’re in the same boat now.

Some of us have roots that didn’t bring a ship here, but we’re still here in the same boat now.
In Florida, Martin Luther King Jr Day is a day to spread love and speak loudly about equality regardless of the colour of your skin.

I am ready to pursue my passion and
take my potential to the next level.
Do I have a passion?
I have hobbies and interests, but I wouldn’t call them passions.
Painting is a new skill I’ve been working on. I call it my COVID hobby. During COVID restrictions I started to take on-line tutorials and try to do at least 1 a week. Thanks Jesse Robertson for providing these wonderful tutorials. This week being in Florida, I thought I would try the Great Blue Heron tutorial. I used one of the 8×10″ canvas frames from the local Dollar Tree. I like the ability to do just a bit a day and let it dry before adding the next layer and unpausing the tutorial.
