American Barn Owl flying straight ahead
This American Barn Owl seems to be flying straight into the New Year, and that’s what I’m doing—spreading my wings and facing what comes at me head-on.
Right now, 2016 is a sheaf of blank pages waiting for us to fill with the daily stories of our journeys through life. I’m excited to see what this year will bring.
Happy New Year!
Life is good.

Mia, you bring so much to our lives with your beautiful images and information. My dream is to see an owl. Hard to get out and about with my husband’s illness but one day maybe. May you and yours have a peaceful year doing what you love the best.
