Together on the Trail Two blue jays sit high on a branch, I slow down to take a glance. Bold blue flies over my head, a color to make me smile— get out of bed. A crimson cardinal catches my eye, pecking at the ground as I run by. I stop to watch him looking for fallen seeds— Interrupted by a nuthatch two then three. Gather to greet me on the trail, happy chirps in a row bringing joy to my soul. I turn to run, but just then— my eyes meet the deepest red. Hanging on pine, checking the view. Together on the trail Thank you.

Beautiful... I often pay attention to the birds while out for a jog. Once, I had the feeling a tree filled with chirping sparrows was cheering me on as I ran by...
Lovely concept - I'm thrilled I landed on your substack!
Lovely post, Julie - I love, love, love the birds!
Didn't make it home in time today to join you, but I'm already looking forward to next time! 😊
