They look us in the eye and tell us nothing has got worse. The ground falls out from under them and they smile defiantly.

Scarlet and Blossom
Spring is almost here—just four days away! This image, taken last spring, showcases a northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) and a crepe myrtle flower, both vying to bring a splash of brightness to the day.

Echoes of Stillness
As I look around at the treetops, I notice the delicate interplay of light and shadow. Upon closer examination, these subtle shifts often unveil birds and other wildlife. In this instance, the treetop became a temporary haven for a group of goldfinches. Though the small flock was too distant and the morning light too faint to capture much detail, I chose to present the scene in black and white—offering a vignette-style cameo of the birds.
The photographs I share here don’t appear as vivid as they do in my Pixel’s gallery. To make them load more easily, I reduce their size and slightly lower their quality. Take a look:

This is a Blue Grosbeak (Passerina caerulea), a member of the Cardinalidae family, which also includes other vibrant birds like Northern Cardinals. I captured this photo a couple of years ago and look forward to spotting some again this year.

Do you use a pill organizer? If you do, chances are you’re no longer a spring chicken. I remember when I was first prescribed a daily pill—it was in my forties, and my blood pressure had climbed well past the acceptable range. I was preparing for dental surgery when my dentist, a colonel, ordered me to head straight to the emergency room. At the ER, the nurse who took my blood pressure got quite excited (she did give it back), though the doctor seemed unfazed. And that’s how I ended up with my starter pack of meds. Since then, my daily regimen has grown little by little, to the point where I now struggle to fit everything into my pill organizer.

We can feel it, this warmth at the edge of our hairlines, when someone acts with care towards us. It is this worm of kindness, burrowing its way into our brains.
Tiny Treasures in the Snow
This photo features goldfinches and chipping sparrows in the snow. I'd call it a snow day, but since I'm in Louisiana, it's the snow day.

On the rails of time, we draw it closer; bend it as far as possible. But it has only one direction and no destination.
