If I were to carry a magickal staff, this would be my inspiration.

Some bird sightings feel like little moments of magick. A random path through the woods, a well-timed pause, and all the myriad choices have brought you to that particular spot just as something new flutters bye and your only job is to witness.

Reminded of this as I rewatch this Bobolink song. 🌌💗🐦‍⬛

Despite the excessive rain, flooding, wind and power outages leading up to this weekend, the annual Morro Bay Bird Festival is going on this weekend.

It is also the debut launch of my Bobolink bird festival companion web app which has been 2 years in the making.

Yesterday I came home to find in the mailbox this lovely bobolink, painted on a postcard by Gil Roth (@vms)! I feel so honored and touched! (I may even have teared up a little.)

Gil runs a brilliant podcast, by the way, the Virtual Memories Show, in which he draws writers, artists, translators, and scholars into amazing, in-depth conversations. Be sure to check it out at http://chimeraobscura.com/vm/
