Black-crowned Night Heron
Green Heron  - 2025.07.20
Green Heron
Waiting and watching above the surface ready to break through.
Piercing the shell of realities - old, new and undefined.
What is left to do but contemplate the solitude within.

Messenger

Great Blue Heron - 2025.08.03
Great Blue Heron
Standing tall in stature with a spirit reaching beyond the world.
Searching for the answer to a question not yet formed in the mind.
What message does the messenger bring and what does that mean to you?

Now Found

Green Heron
Now is the moment to be lived fully without thoughts of time.
Only realizing this moment perched on the edge of living.
When will Truth be seen glaring bright and illusions fall away?

River Watcher

Great Blue Heron - 2025.07.01
Great Blue Heron
Watching the water of life flow past carrying promises.
Promises unwrapped and waiting to be discovered by you.
You that carries thoughts and dreams of yesterday and tomorrow.

Tread Carefully

Green Heron - 2025.06.29
Green Heron
Chaotic paths of timber scattered over murky waters.
Moving with purpose: careful steps of focus and attention.
Seeking that which lives below the surface: rarely seen above.

Eye Reveal

Black-crowned Night Heron - 2025.06.22
Black-crowned Night Heron
Tomorrow and beyond, not to be revealed at first glance.
Inspect and search for the Truth, held by the eye that now sees.
What is it that we seek now that the Truth has been revealed?

Location, location…

Green Heron
Silently waiting, undisturbed by circumstances unknown.
Senses of sight and sound, capturing surroundings all around.
Where to go from here: perhaps nowhere but the eternal now?

Forming

Black-crowned Night Heron
Hidden amongst the tangle, waiting for a new day to begin.
Quietly thoughts takes shape, the senses searching for something to know.
Emptiness becoming form, and form becoming known: who are you?

Searching

Green Heron
Searching in a tapestry of foliage and fallen timber.
Day after day, the search continues in hopes of finding peace.
What if the searching itself is the answer to finding peace?

Side-eye

Black-crowned Night Heron
From glance to glare, seeing beyond the surface into the Truth.
Truth looking back, always without judgment or expectation.
What is Truth seeing as you live your life, morning, noon, and night?
