Today as the sun was rising I caught a glimpse of a sweet small bird hiding in a tree. Her stillness and demure prompted me to bring my pencil to paper and draw. I caught only a minute of her before she flew away and left me on my own to finish. I thought to myself sometimes we just don’t want to be seen.
This morning while sitting outside with coffee and sketch book in hand I heard a tweet. Tweet, tweet and then again another tweet. For the longest time I watched and waited to see who would claim this sweet entertaining sound and then it was gone. I detached and stopped looking and just as I did a beautiful hummingbird flew in front of me tweeting me a song. It happened so quick that my drawing is from memory only.
