The small things....

[melbrown]

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well. I'm okay, not awesome but present. 😊 I wanted to share this photo of a bird I saw today on my walk to the train home. I work near a college & one of my favorite parts of day is the walk to the train from the shop. There's like a grove of trees, it's like a 5 minute walk in nature. I saw a bird fly by & noticed it didn't look like the normal birds, we get a lot of crows, gulls, pigeons . Luckily for me I noticed he looked like he was going to land. And I was able to find him & get a better view. So beautiful.... it made my day. A small thing brought a big smile to my face. Just want to remind everyone of the simple pleasures of life. 💛

It's the little simple pleasures in life that make all the difference to a day and how we feel

Thanks for sharing your photo would love to know what type of bird it is

Have a lovely peaceful day 😀

So glad so many people enjoyed post . I know how hard it is for many of us to find a little light when we feel so in the dark . I'm still feeling good from seeing that beautiful bird yesterday. My husband even noticed a change in my mood, for once in a long time I had a smile on my face & didn't complain about my day when he got me from the station.

I believe he's a black-crowned night heron.... if Google is correct. I'm no bird expert... but knowing it's a type of heron for sure.

I was thinking is it a heron I'm not an expert either but have seen them fly over

I'm on the weight loss forum and they do this thing called a happiness challenge every day and it might sound dramatic but it's changed my life If you go on "my communities "you will see it and can see what it's all about Its just noticing things everyday

Little things do all add up to make us better glad it helped you x
