Wild Flower Wednesday #4
“Another glorious day, the air as delicious to the lungs as nectar to the tongue” – John Muir
The trumpet vine was about 25 feet off the ground in a sabal palm sitting in front of an oak tree. Almost missed it.

Mockingbird Love
“Be like the bird in flight . . . pausing a while on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, yet sings knowing yet, that she has wings.” – Victor Marie Hugo
Decided to give a little love to the mockingbird – I tend to forget/dismiss the more common birds yet they too are beautiful
