She is Sweet Julie Dewdrop, she was caught in the morning mist with nothing to do but wait for the rising sun to dry and warm her wings. Then she can take flight.

She’s no stranger to water — she remembers her pre-transformed youth when she gloried in swimming the marsh waters that now spawn the mosquitoes that feed her.

It’s okay to wait. The sun is emerging from behind the low clouds even now, and she’s safe under the eave of your roof.

Red Tail!

The Sun is a cauldron of energy. He perpetually explodes in coronal masses and electromagnetic bursts.
Which in their turn tower and soar,
And then collapse back into the surface of Sol.
Only to do it again and again.
And again.

Empowered by Our Day Star,
The Earth in her turn does much the same.
Only her dynamo is Life.
Sunlight made form as flesh and bone and shimmering wing.
They tower and soar only to collapse into Gaia’s bosom,
Destined to spring forth again and again.
And again.

This is gaia with a small g.
In respect for her mother.
She longs for a home of her own.

Don’ wanna study migration no mo’. Colibri Casa Heck has found her permanent home at Jay and Sonja’s beautiful space. She’ll be just fine. She’s under a big eave and Jay tells me the tiny migratory versions love to perch by the dozens on his artistic wall accents.
She can feed on the sweetness of the atmosphere they have created.

Contact me if you would like to free an enchanting colibri of the migratory ball and chain.
