A Quiet And Powerful Parade
On the dark drive to work, I was thinking about how unquiet my heart can sometimes be, and I found myself longing for a more peaceful day. I can always assess my drift towards melancholy because I catch myself sighing a lot.
When I arrived at work, my wife forwarded me a text from one of our daughters-in-law, a text with a video attached. The video gave me just what I was longing for.
A man in Pennsylvania has a camera set up year-round on his property, stationed at one end of a log that spans a creek. The camera records all the creatures that use the log to cross over the water. It’s one of those things that can be enjoyed immediately and simply, like a piece of bread with butter, or a cup of cold water on a scorching day.
I hope y’all enjoy it.

I love this! We’ve talked about putting up a trail cam. Often see deer, rarely a fox, hawks. A cam might catch more diversity, but probably not like this video. Our desert is not as abundant. Splendid, thanks for sharing.

Yes, Annie, we’ve had a trail cam up, too, but it never gave us anything like this.
I particularly liked the lynx and the hair-trigger expression on his face as he stared straight into the camera….
