As summer fades into autumn look up. The final batch of fledglings are taking exploratory flights among trees. There are several places in Hot Springs National Parch which are home to flight school for the youngsters. You will likely find places near you to observe the feats of first flight.
Love to ALL!

I never thought I would become a bird person. Based on my blog postings over the past 7 years it is safe to say I Love all varieties of winged beauties in our park and city. Sometimes they seek out my company like this lovely fellow who flew over to greet me. He showed me his foraging talents hopping closer and closer. His fearless eye contact made me wonder if he had lived in someones yard at some point in his life. A final glance and he was on his way. A reminder that I should drop in for a visit more often.
Love to all!

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Super Sensitive.”
If you were forced to give up one sense, but gain super-sensitivity in another, which senses would you choose?
I am a photographer and hiker (HikeOurPlanet.com) and rely on four senses for my nature photography. Sight is obvious, but I also rely on scent and sound to spot wildlife for my photography. Often overlooked is a need for touch to press down at the right moment to open my camera’s shutter. Sight, sound, scent and touch combine for balance and safety as I hike through the Forest. This leaves one obvious sense that I would give up.
Happily I would forgo taste to continue with my love of seeing and photographing the beauty of nature. For me it would be a very small price to pay for enhanced eyesight.
The Universe sings to my Soul with the poetry of Natures beauty. ~ Lee Hiller
