Unforgettable Nature

A short random list of some of my unforgettable moments with nature

Watching the sunset over Lake Malawi
canoeing through the Okavango Delta
standing in front of Victoria Falls
red squirrels dancing towards us as we walk through pine woods
a fox stealing our sandwiches in the Royal Botanic Gardens
red legged
choughs off sea cliffs in Wales
a humming bird hawkmoth on buddleia in Edinburgh
humming birds on feeders in California
a kingfisher flying across the red canal
the moon turning orange during lunar eclipse
an electric storm over the Mediterranean Sea

Unforgettable for Writers Island

Yep, all wonderful things.....though I didn't click on the moth (that would mean nightmares).

Wonderful concept. Multidimensional text. Words contain images. Kinda like the craft/text you showed us in the gallery. Supercool.

I thought I was fairly well traveled. You have been to some breathtakingly beautiful places.

Lovely posts, as usual. I'm a crow fan (as you know from my blog), but I hadn't actually heard of choughs. I've never been to the British Isles (despite 1/2 of my ancestry originating there) and have been feeling overdue for a visit for some time. Now, I have choughs as another reason to get me there....

you're very lucky to have seen such beautiful things, and just as lucky that you notice and value them so much (not everyone does you know, many people don't seem to 'see' nature at all, incredibly!)
have a good day

The first line did it for me. I knew then what the poem meant. Cool stuff...
