Esther Chilton Writing Prompts,

Esther gives us the word Birds for our prompt this week

What do you see,

I wanted to share my story I wrote for Sadje’s  #WDYS. It describes my experience while filling my bird feeders with seed. I saw a purple headed finch that graced me with its presence. Enjoy!

So now, to answer Esther’s prompt on Birds,

Bird watching had become one of my favorite pastimes, mainly because of the freedom, beauty, and song of birds. I am in awe of birds as they migrate through different seasons. Like winter, for instance, the Cardinals with their stunning red beauty against the pure white snow. The cowbirds sound like a drop of water when they make music. How about the yellow and black finches? They seem like they should be flying around in the tropics, instead of a rural country road. My favorite is the bluebird. It has a distinct orange belly and blue back. The love and care for their mate are obvious. The male brings a mealworm to its female while nesting their eggs.

Nature is wonderful to gaze upon in its glorious presence. Life becomes more beautiful and enduring when watching the birds do what they were created to do.

Until Next Time,

Heidi💜
