Beautiful spring day. I have a cold, which in some odd way I appreciate because it gives me the perfect excuse to stay home and just be (and to go to bed early). What do I mean by this? It’s all about the solitude, which I recall from my cottage-by-the-sea days when I lived day after day in the moment. But this is different and better because I am home with my husband who also loves to live in solitude. It’s something we can together.
This morning I noticed a bird thrashing away into a hole in a tree which I thought was the entrance to a squirrel’s home. I sent pictures to my ornithologist sister-in-law who reported that we have a female Wood Duck who is hoping to make a home right in our back yard. As she said “It would be very exciting if they nested there.” Ah, no place like home!
