The Difference an Hour Makes

What a difference an hour makes.

At 8 am birds are singing and the hawks are busy with their nest construction.  The sun is softer and the air a tad cooler.

At 9 am, the birds are mostly silent, the hawks have vanished, the sun is too warm.

It forces me to look, to really look for things.  Back on the bridge I found this lizard.  I'm still looking for that orange bird I saw more than a week ago.  I'm beginning to think it's a myth.  But my eyes are primed for orange back at the bridge.  And that was how I found this lizard.

I never thought a lizard could be beautiful, but that spot of color is something amazing.
