The Morning Chatter: Buck, Doe & Rudy

The Morning Chatter: Buck, Doe & Rudy

Our morning routine consists of the simple things of life as we stop and greet the day after coming downstairs. Before breakfast I usually go out and fill the bird feeders and check to see who is visiting or maybe spent the night close by. This morning, as Rudy watched me from the porch, our friendly deer pair came bounding from the wooded area at the back and side of our yard. I have known them since they were spotted fawns. As babies I called them Prince Charming and the Princess. Now Charming is quite the king and man about town and his sister, the Princess, remains near by him most of the time. 

This week he shed his antler velvet and for the first time his antlers are in all their glory. 

I invite you to watch this short video and feel the fun that Rudy and I have most mornings as we are greeted by our deer friends. How do you feel as you connect with them?

The Morning Chatter: Rudy's Deer Friends

The Morning Chatter: Rudy's Deer Friends

It was a beautiful early spring morning in April. The cherry blossoms were in bloom and the early spring flowers were dancing every so daintily in the cool air. Rudy was on his porch watching over his deer friends. They often come for their breakfast of fallen birdseed and cracked corn. Last years fawn, now almost one year old now, love to play and scamper around the yard. Rudy is usually fixated on them as they greet each other with a morning hello. 

As you watch and listen to this video, take a slow in and out breath and feel as if you are with Rudy observing the deer family. Feel who they are and connect with them on a deeper level. Imagine the cool spring air and feel the greenery coming alive. Listen for the songs of the various birds that are filled with such joy to have another morning to sing. 

I hope you join in the conversation. The conversation of just "being". Be in the moment and feel the communion of all nature coming to life and waking up.

Take a moment each morning to watch and listen. Open all of your senses as you take a nice deep in breath, breathing it all in. Ah....

Rudy greeted the morning quite vocally as the birds began to gather and the sun began to rise in the sky through the naked branches of the trees. The birds brought the news and gossip of the day. Can you hear what they are saying? Take a moment and listen, feel and breathe....
