Some new experiences lately. Â Butterflies and dragonflies flying in very close and hovering, following. Â Our local neighbor cat who seemed to be intently wishing to connect with me.
Then today.
Since living in this neighborhood, we have had the pleasure of listening to a pair of Mourning Doves daily during the warmer months. Â They often hang around our house and on neighboring properties. Â We have spoken with them. Â Greeted them. Â They always remain at a distance.
Until today.
All three of us were out back when our little one noticed one of the doves up on our roof. Â It seemed to be listening to us. Â We greeted her. Â She then flew down to the grass, just a couple of feet from all of us, and sat there. We all crouched down, speaking with her. Â She bobbed her head and stayed put for a few moments before flying away.
It was so awesome.
I said it’s like we are all learning how to be a peace with one another again.
