Osprey

I ventured out one day to bird watch in the woods I saw a new path to take near the tree where I stood I walked for several miles and could smell fragrant flowers Not sure how far I have gone but I’ve walked for hours I could smell forest moss and hear faint sounds of running water I followed the sounds hoping to see a blue heron or even some otters I walked a few more miles and stopped when I saw a great white egret It’s always rewarding to walk for miles to see these birds, no regrets I followed the egret until I came upon a beautiful cascading waterfall I then saw a quick glimpse of a rare osprey, and heard his shrill calls I sat by the water taking in the beauty, it was very beautiful, picturesque To my delight, I then spotted the osprey above the waterfall in his huge nest 9/22/19 Contest: Picturesque Rhyme Contest Sponsor: Eve Roper
