I took this picture weeks before I broke my leg. I wasn't going to post this picture of a Bald Eagle on a deer that had been hit by a car, thought it might be too graphic. But. It speaks of the cycle of life however disturbing it is sometimes. Reality. I see that a lot up here in the animal world, fighting for food, fighting for survival, fighting for a mate, it's all instinct for them. I admire that. I finally saw the little Pronghorn the other day with the rest of her family, the one that I thought had broken her leg. She still had a slight limp, but the bone looks as though it has healed over, she doesn't bend it, but she has learned how to walk and run anyway.
I'm progressing well, I think. Yesterday was my first day outside and I was able to get down the stairs of the deck and walk the driveway with my walker, more like dragging the walker over the gravel. I walked to my car, sat in it, it started which surprised me, I let it idle while I listen to Beatle music and I sat there, imagining that I was driving. Boy, did that feel good.
That is a beautiful shot and nature at it's truest.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you could get out and hopefully you can sit on the deck and do some stitching and enjoying the fall weather.
