Ocotillo in Bloom – Arizona Blue Sky – Loud Whistling Bird – Beautiful Morning – God is Good – All the Time –

A whistle, loud and clear, broke my concentration. I looked up from the book I was reading to see which bird could produce such a piercing sound. I grabbed my phone and slowly approached the blooming ocotillo plant where this bird was perched. Other times I’ve tried to get a shot of a bird nearby, but I couldn’t get close enough before they all flew away. Today this friendly whistler stayed put for me. I haven’t learned to recognize Arizona birds yet, so I can’t tell you its name.

Most mornings, as the weather has warmed, I’ll be sitting on a lawn chair in our yard drinking coffee, reading, contemplating sunshine, springtime breezes, and blue Arizona sky. All this beauty reminds me that God is good. All the time…
