Serendipity…

After about the fifth snowstorm in three weeks on a morning when the thermometer had yet to reach zero degrees, I was detoured on my way to work. I took the longer route via back roads rather than the highway.  This got me to work just in time to get stuck behind an 18 wheeler that couldn’t quite maneuver around the snowbanks.  He was good and stuck.  As I sat there, I looked out the car window through a break in a bank of hedges and saw a little flock of bluebirds huddled together in the sun.  : )

 

Formerly the neighbor’s cat

With quiet persistence she would steal away from the noise, from the clutter,  to a place of sweet serenity.

The steady, rhythmic sound of her contentment complimenting the stillness

Happiness is…. making new (feathered) friends!
