Everyday beauty

When I was driving to work this morning a bird was flying the whole way up my steeet at eye level in front of my car, it looked so spectacular I got butterflies in my belly.

Then, I saw a calf being born while I was stopped while the council was mowing the side of the road.

I love the rural life.
 Have a fantastic day!!!

    Those are big grin moments that'll stick in your head. Like my ballet dancing cyclist I watched riding down a deserted city street late one night.

    I saw a crazy lady riding her bike up the main street with an outdoor umbrella tucked under her arm-oh no wait...that was me!

    Yesterday afternoon I saw three fat eight-year-old boys building a sandcastle in their old, see-through underpants.They looked so unused to the beach.It looked like it was some last-minute parental decision and they were so happy it made my heart hurt.

    Life is magical sometimes.

    I love moments like this and it's lovely to have time to enjoy them - even if they are fleeting. that would have made my day Cath.

    oh lordy such beauty...and to have the ability to see..well that's the gift isn't it...
    i have lots of birds around here that really make me happy but yes i know the feeling of seeing a bird at eye level...we had a pelican fly past the balcony here at eye level a couple of weeks ago...and like you ooh yes it stirred a feeling in the gut...
