As the sun gets nearer to rising on Saturday, the fog rises too, and nears town. The Cascades are no longer visible across the Sound.

Early Saturday, the fog is rolling up over Marrowstone Island, with the distant Cascades showing above the fog line.

What is more miraculous and priceless then each year’s harvest?

I am walking in my neighborhood without earbuds (5).
My neighbor bird takes off again. I catch her with my camera, barely.
And she lands again.

Here is a photograph of my book box doors for Norm 2.0’s Thursday Doors. I have a library box and books come in and go out. Everything from textbooks to Dostoevsky to Louisa May Alcott to mysteries and romances.
Sometimes I put coffee out, too, and have my coffee in the yard in the early morning. My daughter wants to know how people will know I am not going to poison them, but if I am out there drinking the coffee, I think they will be reassured.
We have at least 6 Little Free Libraries in town, including one in front of our grade school with lots of kids’ books. Hooray for books and for sharing and exchanging them!

…to land in a tree across the street from me. She cranes her neck to look at me. Am I a weird relative? Am I holding a bird captive? Where are my wings?
Where are my wings? I want to know too.

I am walking without earbuds (3).
I am debating whether to walk closer, and continuing to make my pteradactyl noises, when my bird takes flight.
And flies over me, to land….

Oh! My mystery bird lands in a tree. A big tree. And I zoom in.
Is this a bird that you think of in trees?
I am walking without earbuds, watching and listening.
I take pictures and walk closer. This bird is silent, but I try to imitate it’s call. It knows I am watching, though I am a block away….
For the Daily Prompt: enamored.

I took this photograph when I first saw the bird. Not in focus. I am lucky I even caught it.
What is it? Can you tell?
I am walking without earbuds, looking and listening for birds. This is three blocks from home.
