Falling in Love
We nature lovers walk a fine line.
We want to get up close, but we know it's wrong, unsafe, unnatural and unhealthy for wildlife to be too comfortable around humans. I don't want squirrels to jump in my lap begging for peanuts. But I want to be close enough with my cheap glass to get good shots. This little lady sat for me as if she knew that I just wanted a few pictures. I did not want or need more than a few seconds. I felt like she was looking right at me,into my heart, graciously acknowledging my love and respect. Thank you my love. I hope to see you again soon. Take good care.
