I noticed a blue heron
flying parallel to our van as we went down a back road to the other side of
town. It followed us for about a mile or so before crossing the road, in front
of the vehicle and landing in a pond. It made me smile when he splashed down. Herons
are always a good omen for me. When times are difficult and troubles seem to be
piling up, I can always count on a heron to break the monotony and spread
sunshine into my darkest corners by coming into my line of sight. In my world blue
herons and deer are powerful creatures. What animal brings you good luck?
