I just had a visit from a pair of chickadees outside my office window (they’re fast, but we managed to capture proof to the right).
We hung a bird feeder a few weeks back, just after I had seen a little bird hopping around the balcony beside my desk. But it seemed like we weren’t going to be getting any bird visitors this season, because it just hung there with no action at all.
Finally this morning they came, chirping and taking turns flying up to get a beakfull of seeds, then flitting away again.
So it turns out that, once again, I learn that patience is a virtue. It was definitely worth it to see the happy little birds.
And they’re my mom’s favorite bird, too… her name is Dee, and when she was little she discovered that they call her name: “Chick-a-dee-dee-dee-dee”!
Just like when we’re manifesting something — we can’t expect it to show up right away.
Everything has a gestation period, and comes when the circumstances are right, not when you THINK you want it.
Apparently the gestation period for chickadees is a few weeks! 😉
