In the hush of tangled branches,
a soft heartbeat waits—
wild, watchful,
woven into the breathing earth.

A little different from my usual posts. I don’t normally share many wildlife park portraits, but I liked the fine-art feel of this one. Taken at Cotswold Wildlife Park, this pelican seemed more than happy to pose for a moment.

Carved from shadow and wind,
he arcs through the sky like #charcoal—
a solitary stroke
on the parchment of morning.

With daggered #wingtips, he cleaves the dusk—
a sentinel between rot and rebirth,
silent courier of the underworld’s breath.

Converted this image of a Short-eared Owl to black and white to minimize the distracting farmhouse in the background. December, 2024 in Lorain County.
