Reconnecting with Birds

Reconnecting with Nature is the title of a great book by Michael Cohen which I have read and continue to re-read. It’s about finding wellness though restoring your bond with the earth. “As we begin to learn about reconnecting with nature, we begin to discover why the world works beautifully, yet often does not feel that way in our lives, Nature beautifully sustains itself in balance by using 53 natural senses that we inherit. Our problem is that we learn to restrict ourselves to only five of the natural senses we are born with. The disastrous personal, social and environmental results speak for them selves. Research shows that we can choose to rejuvenate all of our inborn natural sensitivities and make things better.”

I reconnect to nature each morning by spending a hour in my backyard, in which I connect to the trees and birds. This photography was from yesterday connection.
