  Great Blue Herons Herons are long-legged, long-necked, freshwater and coastal birds in the family Ardeidae, with 75 recognized species, some of which are referred to as egrets or bitterns rather than herons. Heron symbolism centers on  patience, balance, self-reliance, and quiet wisdom , stemming from their hunting style of stillness and sudden action, representing knowing when to act versus when to observe, bridging earthly and spiritual realms, and offering good luck or guidance in various cultures. They symbolize adaptability, transformation, and deep inner knowing, often appearing as messengers of change or protectors of waterways.   The great blue heron is a large wading bird in the heron family Ardeidae, common near the shores of open water and in wetlands over most of North and Central America, as well as far northwestern South America, the Caribbean and the Galápagos Islands.             #Bird of the Month #Heron...

  Gratitude   Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. It turns problems into gifts, failures into successes, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. It can turn an existence into a real life, and disconnected situations into important and beneficial lessons. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.
