Ten Little Celebrations – November 2018
/HoLLIE (Howard County Legacy Leadership Institute for the Environment) graduation was this month after accumulating enough volunteer hours since finishing the class last spring.
And then came the Festival of the Cranes with so many little celebrations:
Seeing two barn owls circle above the field where I was standing. It was a first for me….so beautiful and ghost-like.
Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge. What an amazing place….and great hosts to the Festival of the Cranes. I am already planning to go again! There are so many sights and sounds to celebrate here.
Home again. I celebrate returning every time I am away for longer than a couple days.
Bald Eagle seen from my office window. The morning we left to drive to Pennsylvania for Thanksgiving, a bald eagle flew over the forest behind our house while I was shutting down my laptop for the road trip. It continued over our house. Since I saw a pair of eagles soaring a nearby shopping center recently, I think perhaps their nest is somewhere in the forest along the Middle Patuxent River near us. What a way to start the Thanksgiving holiday!
Thanksgiving….celebrating the day…realizing how much I am thankful for.
