Such a sweet love song. Elizabeth Barrett Browning couldn't have said it more beautifully. <3
Those photos are so lovely! I've never seen one of those birds before, they are beautiful!
You have definitely captured the blue heron's movements...her great patience and determination! And your verse is lovely...

So beautiful my friend to have such love and devotion for something, for someone. The blue heron is such a graceful and beautiful bird and I hope that you were able to get out last weekend and enjoy the days, hopefully in warmer weather!
Hugs!

What a lovely sentiment to go with such lovely photos of a little Blue Heron. I could just watch our birds all day and you always capture them so lovingly and beautifully.
Hugs my sweet friend

I love Herons!!! These are awesome!!! And your writing is beautiful! Your blog is one of my favorites!
Hey, you are a very talented writer. I like surfing through blogs and discovering people with such an imagination. I have to tell you that the "duck" in the pictures really reminds me of one I saw in Argentina once. When I decided to rent apartments in buenos aires I wanted it to be in front of the lakes, and everyday I saw the ducks from my window!
