The Morning Chatter: Hummingbird

The Morning Chatter: Hummingbird

A few days ago I was standing just outside my back porch looking up at the sky and treetops when I heard a buzz near my left ear. I felt the air moving slightly around my head. It happened very fast and kind of made me feel as if my head was slightly vibrating. I turned to my left and saw a hummingbird right next to me completely absorbed in a lovely purple blossom on a butterfly bush. I could hardly breathe or move. I had never been that close to such a lovely and magical being before. In that moment I moved my hand as slowly as possible to pull my iPhone out of my right pants pocket attempting to capture the moment in a photo or even better a video. In some ways I hated moving. Each slow and gentle movement slightly distracted me from the experience of being in the energy of this wonderful soul. 

"They" say that hummingbirds and dragonflies can move between realms. I don't know if this is true or not. I will leave that up to you but I do know that they are magical to me. 

I hope you enjoy this short moment with a hummingbird.

The Morning Chatter: Butterflies & Flowers

The Morning Chatter: Flowers & Butterflies

Summer is in full swing here on the east coast of the USA. The butterfly bush provides a playground attracting many visitors. I never know who will show up. The energy is always lively and at times serious but I mostly feel light and playful. 

This day there was a hummingbird moth and several different butterflies as well as a bumble bee flitting around gathering and drinking nectar. Other insects can be heard singing and chattering away along with crows cawing while other birds put their two cents in. 

Each day we should either go outside or look our our windows for a moment to connect with some form of nature and just listen. Breathe in the natural life and energy that is all around us no matter where we live. Take a moment and feel your connection with Mother Earth through your feet on the ground or floor and relax as you watch and listen to the video below. 

It is best watched full screen with the sound turned up. 

Can you hear the hummingbird moth as it buzzes by?
