And free! All it cost was was my attention, which Mr. Mourning Dove had from the start…he posed for about 75 shots and I hope he felt the energy of my gratitude and wonder…

That last photo takes my breath away Catherine!
I have a pair here that sit on the roof in the morning and in the evening and I love to watch them and listen to them. I’ve even been blessed with a few egg shells on different occasions.
Many Happy Returns of the Sun to You and Yours this
Blessed Solstice Day! 🙂

Thank you, Akasa: yes, they exude such gentleness and openness.I wanted to post a lot more photos, but I thought I’d keep his mourning dove yoga simple and in the pattern that emerged from his movements…of course, I arranged them to suggest a symmetry. His own choices were much more fluid and free… I think he was hoping his female partner would be impressed! I certainly was.
In Lak’ ech, my sister. Joy…

I get frustrated when I need to modify yoga poses to fit my abilities. Your dove shows me it’s all about intention and mindfulness, not how you do the positions. Thank you!
