For the last few months a family of acorn woodpeckers has visited each day, generally in the mid-afternoon. There are about four or five, each of them chattering with the others in between hopping down for a drink from the bird bath.

You are very blessed to be able to live so close to nature.

Yeah I am. But, I’ve noticed that living close to nature also helps a person become attune to the whispers of nature wherever I’m at. Even in the city there’s a lot of nature to be found, even if it doesn’t always land on the cedar tree right outside.
