I wouldn’t exactly call myself a “bird watcher” but I do love birds and when I travel, I take a great interest in the different species of birds that I see. This little fellow is a red crested cardinal, and they were introduced to Hawaii in the 1930’s. They travel in family groups and the immature birds have a brown coloured head.
We were sitting waiting for the bus when this fellow hopped by and his beautiful colouring caught my attention and my delight.
I’m so grateful for these unexpected and delightful moments of joy that “hop” into my life. When life get’s complicated, these beautiful gifts of simplicity and wonder put it all into perspective. It’s like I’ve been handed the end of a brightly coloured ball of yarn which leads me through the maze to find peace in my heart.
Wishing you all, a beautiful peace of the heart,
