No Pelicans Today . . .

.
Having heard that the pelicans have come back to the Bosque, we went searching today, but to no avail.

That said,
the Bosque,
as always,
enchants.

I so love seeing the egrets.
For years, I've loved the paintings
from the 1930s
of these majestic birds.
These memories
always make me want
to play with their pictures.

I like the "western" look.

The clouds today were outstanding
white and shining
making for wonderful reflections
in the clear ponds of the Bosque.

And look at the way the sky
merges from pearly white
to the this gorgeous blue.

Perhaps the pelicans
will show themselves tomorrow.
