Spring is well underway - finally! - which means more time outdoors looking for birds and any other wild critters that happen along. An otter here, a muskrat there. Migratory birds we are always pleased to glimpse on their journey further north or west. Migratory birds that stay in southcentral Alaska such as Sandhill Cranes and American Robins. All the fauna, big and small, we've been out and about looking for them.
A few days ago I realized I'm not often reaching for my camera or my phone these days. I'm not regularly trying to capture things to either post here or save to my laptop or keep on my phone for occasional perusal. Perhaps without realizing it, I've been choosing to be more in the moment, more mindful of what is in front of me rather than worrying about getting a clear image for later.
