June is our rainy month
time of storms
and beautiful skies
a time when life is giving birth
fawns
flowers
wild roses:
Indian paintbrush:
owlets:
great gray owlet
a lovely time
on the threshold of summer
i paused to consider sharing a story with you
i use this blog as a spirit helper
to remind us that nature has the ability to uplift our spirits
as i paused i thought that intense things in nature are good for us too
they remind us of what is real
teaching us respect and awareness:
three black bears hunted in my yard recently
a mamma and her two large cubs
i heard the bleating of a fawn....
it was entirely dramatic in
motion and sound
as i could hear them growling, grunting and chomping their feast
one bear climbed up and down a cottonwood tree
with ease
they might have caught the fawn's scent as they wandered
or the protective mothers scent
the mother deer was entirely distraught
my heart went out to her
I have been looking at humanized bears in art in a different way
this week
but
we all eat
and something must die for this to happen
so it is simply real
bears are seriously strong and wild creatures
i most certainly witnessed this
and living in the wilds of Montana
is indeed wild
