driving to Cave Jct.

thin soup of morning

white oak mistletoe silhouette

the curve of old wagon roads

and before

the seasonal stepping of families

mountain to valley

and back

and back

thin soup of morning

a gelding clomps along the road

free from fences

the pecking order of

muddy pasture

a yellow first student bus

blinks down the road

Northern Saw-whet Owl

Heard a Northern Saw-whet Owl tooting around the yurt this evening.

Exciting as it is an early signal of all the spring singing to come!
