I saw this lovely red kite floating in the sky above my garden and by the time I had gone in to retrieve my camera from the kitchen, he had floated quite a long way away so this is heavily cropped. When I see birds floating in the sky like this, I always wish I could be a bird.
At the moment I am reading a book on my kindle entitled "Bird Theraphy" by Joe Harkness. It is written to help people understand how watching birds can be so therapeutic and enabled him to overcome mental health problems. I completely agree with him and it is backed up with lots of research. I originally bought it for Steve as he suffers from anxiety and depression and I am sure that when he comes for a walk with me to Priory, he finds it beneficial to be at one with nature. He hasn't read the book and I don't think he will but at least it helps me to understand how he feels.
Thank you for getting yesterday's hoopoe and dog on PP and for all your kind comments and Favs. It is always much appreciated.
