That’s me on the right and the Swan Goose on the left. He and his partner, Snow Goose, were away from the shoreline when my wife and I arrived. But they both came closer to say hello. No contact this time but it was nice to get a close look at the spot where the fishing hook pushed through his skin. Happily, his feathers were smooth over the spot, no sign of irritation. Maybe he was successful in “grooming” it out on his own. I was just happy to see him swimming freely, not snared again by abandoned fishing lines.
Anybody you need to check in with today? A phone call you’ve meant to make, but haven’t? One that you should make but have avoided? Maybe just a friendly “hello” to someone who could use an ounce or two of Christly compassion? Am I my brother’s/sister’s keeper? I think we both know the answer to that one.
Be blessed today so that you can bless others.
