I enjoyed watching and photographing the ibis on Sanibel Island. They use their amazing beaks to snatch shellfish out of their shells with great efficiency. One can see how natural selection would render their beaks that shape, but why the bright colors on the legs and beaks? They are very docile and coordinated. Their juveniles (see bottom photo) are especially striking. Have you ever seen one before? I had not.

I work to amplify good wherever I find it. I love color, texture, beauty, great ideas, nature, metaphor, deliciousness, genuine spirituality, and exploring new territory. I encourage authenticity, nurture creativity, champion sustainability, promote peace, and hope to foster a new renaissance where we all are free to be our most fulfilled, multifaceted, and terrific selves.
