Teachable Moments

July 5, 2016 by Larry Hubbell 1 Comment

This photo does not truly represent this week’s post, plus it is not properly centered. Part of the bird isn’t even shown. In spite of all of that it is the photo which I found most compelling and I am not even sure why. Maybe it is the abnormal posture, or her shadow on the bark or the contrast between the bird and the bark or possibly the limited amount of sunlight. I don’t know. In any case, I hope you will follow the link below to see how Chip is stepping up and taking the time to teach his offspring.

Union Bay Watch

Have a great day on Union Bay…where nature lives in the city!
